Wow a wood stocked, blued rifle without a huge scope in an old caliber. Guess they still work Congrats on a real nice bull. Well done sir!

Great bull and great accomplishment. The old warhorse is still getting things done. I love the 30-06!

Did you get a pass through with the 165?

Yes, it broke the shoulder and exited behind the opposite shoulder

Awesome. No PRC, no suppressor just a solid rifle. mtmuley

Yep, it just works. With the right bullet wow!

Beautiful rig. Did the brake come with the rifle?

They have historically been 1:11 and threaded 15x1 when threaded from factory but I see they’ve gone to 1:10 and 5/8x24. I agree I am unsure it matters much, just curious.

 

[270elk]

That's great, congrats !
Gives me encouragement. Just turned 66 and haven't done a mountain hunt for a couple years. Think I'm going to book an elk hunt for next year.
