    7mm mag Tikka T3x lite SS LH

    I have a Tikka t3x lite left handed stainless in 7mm rem mag. Less than 25 rounds through it. Comes with Warne rings, a full box of 160 grain Nosler accubonds, and a nikon 3x9x40 bdc scope, prostaff I believe. 650 without scope 700 with. Rings and ammo come with for 650 and 700.

    Vortex TTSX, if only.

    Another interesting point I had in my notes is that as the barrel would heat up and foul the barnes would shoot tighter.

    Vortex TTSX, if only.

    I was thinking about just doing it with the TTSX since even with the throw away shots they were still minute of elk past 200 yards.

    Vortex TTSX, if only.

    I went out today and sighted in my rifles. A 270 win and 7mm Rem. My 270 really liked its new factory swift scirocco2 130s. My 7mm mag, which shoots 150 core lokts well, did not care for the 150 ttsx. I really wish it didm. As I do like the ammo. But it would shoot two close only to throw...

    Success = Meat in the freezer!

    Went out hunting this morning. About 8,000 feet up. Was trying for a cow elk, but the animals were late up the drainage. We saw a decent forky buck, but his body was not that big and some does moving up the drainage. After seeing them we ran up the clearing and sat by some pine trees. We...

    Might hang up the bow

    No problem John. My skin is not too thin :) . Sometimes I need that kick in rear end. I am going to try and get out Thursday morning to hunt. I might head back to this spot as it seems talking to the local hunter that the area I was in holds Elk consistently from year to year until the snow...

    Might hang up the bow

    So today I had some fun. I only hiked in about a mile. The least I have hiked all year for a hunt. The area seemed good even though it was in an area known for substantial human presence. I hunt until about 830am and all was quite. I was starting my walk back to the truck to find another...

    Might hang up the bow

    Thanks for the advice guys! I did some fishing and took a little hunting break and the ambition to get back out is in me again. Heading out tomorrow with new vigour. I think I just needed a little rest to push the negativity out.

    Might hang up the bow

    It is funny how one gets attuned to a species. This is my first western elk hunting year. Being from the midwest and hunting whitetail like crazy even out here I can pick out whitetail habitat and trails like nothing. I could have filled my deer tag with a whitetail many times over. Elk are...

    Might hang up the bow

    I went fishing today and had some success. I will be heading back out Sunday. Still being Non res I am not going to get a black bear tag yet. This spring I will. However, I do have a big blackie pinned down. He hangs out in the same area. Maybe he will stay until spring and I can get him...

    Might hang up the bow

    I have had a tough archery season. I have either been running into people, bears, or whitetails. Not much elk. I am having higher hopes for rifle season. With only a day at a time to hunt I have found it too difficult to pattern elk.

    SW Montana- Southern Gravellies

    I am not sure about the Gravellies, but the Gallatin range has had a lot of elk move down the mtn. On Sunday I was starting to already see quite a few on the Ag fields around town. I ended up going to about 8000 feet of elevation, maybe a little under, only to find deer and bear tracks in the...

    Drop-away rests

    Drop away rests are great. Just get one that captures the arrow in a ready position. Such as the new rip cords or my favorite, the QAD HDx.

    First archery elk (Mt. Bull)

    Congrats! Very nice bull.

    Finally found good sign and a spot to my self.

    I went back into the unit about 10 miles by forest road. It took over an hour to make it up the washed out road. When I arrived about 500 feet of elevation above the snow line I decided that any further was useless with all the snow. I waited until 30minutes before sunrise to leave the...

    ATV's going up horse/human trail

    There is a place like that where I am heading tomorrow. A road ends with a vehicle use restricted sign. Well, people cut down a couple trees and drive right around gate with four wheelers. Really annoying, but most people (I dont call them hunters) that will do such a thing are lazy ad wont...
