Elk .... Let's see them!!!
Another Old man, old cartridge, old cow (I think). This year I drew a Wyoming cow elk tag and was successful. At 76 I plan on a few more years of this great sport.My rifle is a wood stocked Kimber Classic Select with a VXIII 4.5x14. The Kimber is chambered in 270 Winchester, shooting 140 Federal... -

Is chasing Wyoming permits worth it?
Developing a plan is key to hunting in Wyoming. It took me 12 points to get a bull of a lifetime. During that timeframe I took 6 cows, 3 antelope, and one nice mule deer. Was the wait worth it? For me yes!- 270elk

Wyoming Girl, 12, Stuns With One-Shot Kill From 600 Yards To Bag Huge Elk
The emphasis of the post is a 600 yd shot. Not impressed! Teach her to stalk, to hunt, and respect the game. Would we be reading about a gut shot elk because a puff of wind blew the bullet off target. The adults in charge of this cluster should be ashamed.- 270elk

I'm just going with a European mount. One exercise that really helps me is yoga twice a week, light weights twice a week (hight reps) biking, hiking and swimming for cardio. Good luck -

I think Sako uses a 1:11 twist. I really don't care, it is very accurate with anything I put through it. I was using a 165 Swift Scirocco which is devastating. Nope, I am a 270 guy. -

Old man, old cartridge, old elk
I turned 75 this May and officially moved into Geezer-hood! I drew a Wyoming bull tag after 12 years of applying. I spent the spring and summer working on getting into realistic shape for a 75 year old. I had planned on using my Kimber 270 for the hunt but I received a new rifle for my 75th... -

Rifle Mfr Ratings
My question about his reviews are, 1) if you don't own and shoot a given manufacture a review is hearsay, 2) I also own two kimber selects and they both shoot great. -

I do not agree with the evaluation of SAKO. Their actions and barrels are top notch. The accuracy is outstanding -
