Elk .... Let's see them!!!
Cow Elk double in November with my fiance at the time (now wife). 300 Win Mag with 180 gr solid coppers. She shot first and dropped her cow at 330 yards.

How long did it take for your first elk?

Possible that some bulls hang around the last remaining cows that are in heat, however, that will change quickly once the orange army descends on the opening weekend of rifle.- samuel_284Win

I should apologize to Randy for this
I was going to mention Dr. Peterson's commentary on these topics. He has some thought-provoking podcasts that are worth a listen. I don't have a good answer to any of this. In the end, I think the cowardice, and nihilistic, hatred that the shooter has for their position in humanity results in...- samuel_284Win

Best towns to live/retire in Montana?
Bozeman, because then you can live next to all the hard-partying MSU college kids or the type of people that give you a nasty look for carrying a handgun while hiking- samuel_284Win
