Kennetrek Fit
This^^ I know how badly you want to wear them cuz I did too and I had the same experience in the store. I ended up buying a pair that felt like the arch was in the right place but after a lot of miles (thinking the boot was still breaking in) it turned out the boot was probably too small...- HuntNRef

Kimber rifles who has them?
I used to own the exact rifle your looking at. It was beautiful and if it shot as good as it looked I would still have it. Unfortunately, it didn’t. They call it Kimber roulette, some shoot and some need lots of tweaking to get there. -

Boot insulation
I would lean more towards 200 or even none. I can get away with 200 almost always in Montana during November rifle. I typically hike and don’t do much sitting though. If I do sit for awhile, my feet can get cold, which tells me it’s time to move again. I bought some 600 gram this year and they...- HuntNRef

boots - Kenetrek vs Schnees vs Irish Setters
What about Danner? I think the good Danners deserve a look too. I have tried quite a few boots and I always come back to Danner. I wanted to love Kenetrek, but my feet couldn’t. I wore them for probably 100 miles and the only thing that broke in were my feet. My heels were blistered/bloodied for...- HuntNRef

Remington X-Mark Pro Trigger
On any new Remingtons, the first thing I do is replace the X-mark with a Timney. The new X-marks are junk and aren't even worth trying to tune. Older X-marks were not as bad. I cant remember when they changed them, but there is a difference. -

Windplex reticle
I have a windplex with the CDS and it is pretty handy. Definitely more precise then holding into the wind... Is it worth the effort? I wouldn't change my reticle, but I might use it as an excuse to get a new scope! -

Spotting scope size, style and phonescopes
I bought an angled scope first but found that I mostly use it for taking a closer look at game that I’ve already spotted with my binos, whether From a pickup window or along the trail. I do a lot of hiking and the angled scope didn’t fit in my pack vey well. I sold it and bought a straight and... -

H&S Precision Stocks
I have a Remington 700 SF CDL in 300 win mag that I dropped into an HS precision. The HS was just slightly heavier than the factory wood stock which I didn't mind because I thought it would help tame the recoil. It looks better and is more durable. Yes recoil is strong, but its a 300 so what do... -

Montana 704 Custer Elk Hunt
Best chance to draw and/or have a successful elk hunt is archery. I've had the rifle tag twice and it is a frustrating hunt so I quit applying for this unit years ago. It can be done but don't go in with high expectations. -

Sleeping bag recommendations?
Ive had Good luck with Marmot bags. Had both synthetic and down. I prefer down if you can avoid getting it wet. It's lighter and compresses a little better plus it seems to retain its loft better then the synthetic over time. Don't store either type compressed, lay them out or put them into a...- HuntNRef

Spotting Scope cover?
Looking for suggestions for spotting scope cover. Thinking neoprene, I don't want something bulky, just something to protect the scope in my pack and in the field. Its for a Swarovski STS 65mm.
