    I'm three years behind you in age. I hope your health isn't what made your mind up about this being your last elk hunt. I hope to continue for several more years at least. The altitude kicks my behind every year, but I still give it a go. Please let us know how you do and post some pictures ...

    Round In The Chamber

    How do you do that? Is it one of the straight pull actions? Not sure what you mean by raise and lower the bolt. Do you mean the bolt handle (for lack of a better term)? Or is the round chambered but the bolt is still locked back? I'm trying to fully understand what you mean (I'm sorry).

    Round In The Chamber

    Thread isn't locked yet?? I wanted to add my .02 about a similar issue related to a loaded chamber. There were several threads on it in the past, and might even have been mentioned here in the 228 previous posts, but there are those knowledgeable hunters that chamber a round in their rifle, then...

    Medical rant

    When you get the final bill, go to the hospital billing department and tell them you have no insurance and you want to settle the balance in cash. They will usually give you a discount if you are paying in cash. Worth a try.

    Blending powders

    As far as Weatherby blending powders, I used to have a Weatherby catalogue that listed their load data in it. I got it around 1985 or so. If I remember correctly, everything was loaded using Norma MRP powder. It listed the actual grain weight of the powder in each of the factory loads, and...

    Scope looks canted

    I'm referring to the actual erector assembly inside the scope somehow coming loose and rotating inside the scope while the tube was rigidly mounted in the rings. Everything on the outside was properly aligned but was quite apparent when looking through the scope. Can't remember where I read...

    Double-tapping with a .243 vs one shot with 30-06?

    Unless you practice that regularly and become really proficient at it, you would probably anticipate the first shot (jerk it), and miss or wound with the second shot trying to quickly shoot again so my answer would be- No
