Ran into a predicament. Going out for Elk on Sept 28. Picked up a couple of different boxes of shells for the 7 mm mag Rem 700. 162 Hornady Eld shot great but no more around my area. Bought some Fed Premium with 168 berger, 139 gr hornady and 150 gr Rem corelokts. The 139 gr group about 2.2" @...

I got a p/t job @ #####'s just for that reason & I only work gun counter or ammo aisle.

You would think a premium price would reflect a premium fit. Poor quality control after waiting so long.

So which bullets to use for Colorado muzzleloader season.

Well that is what we will do. Next year we have a Wyoming hunt,his 1st western hunt. Hopefully 2022 we will go to Colorado with whatever we can get a decent price on.

I will be hunting 1st week Oct 9000-10000 feet for Elk in Wyoming. What setup should I use if I buy Sitka clothing for 50/50 sitting and horseback ? Will the Sitka holdup for being in the saddle up to 4hrs a day ?

I wish for the price that they would be USA made. My Chippewa loggers are USA made and I beat the snot out of them and they only cost $275/pr.

I took mine 6" nickel python to a shop for poops and giggles. He made a call and told me he did not want it since he would have to give me too much for it.

What is everyones opinions of Nikon Monarch 7's ? They seem to be pretty good to my eyes and I get 45% off MSRP.
