Congrats Keven. That pick-up skull is way cool!

What a buck to catch up to this season. Congrats. (You're much too young to feel the active geology of the mountains.)

There area few but not many good long range glassing spots. Once you get off the hill, you are down in the flat PJ and then still hunting to relocate em. Find some openings without a road and watch those openings very first and last light, and still hunt other areas during the day.

For years, I had cheap 4x Tasco and Bushnells on a 10/22. Of course the wire reticles on two scopes broke. Parallax was a killer at short distances as they were set for 100 yards. I also had the $100 Cabelas rimfire scope and its reticle broke within 100 shots 😞 https://www.cabelas.com/product/hunting/optics/riflescopes/pc/104791680/c/104752080/sc/104535180/cabelas-caliber-specific-rimfire-riflescopes/1826665.uts?slotId=4 I now have this Tract https://www.tractoptics.com/products/riflescopes/22fire-3-9x40-bdc

Beautiful ram and congrats on the 20

Fireplanes, what did you decide/purchase since your post 3 months ago? My post on "rifle for wife" may be appropriate is you are still looking.

Perhaps a rifle like the Weatherby Camilla which is built for the stature of a woman. Is she right or left eye dominant? 7mm-08. To reduce recoil, use a lighter bullet like a 120gr in 7mm (120 Nosler e-tip, 120 Nosler Ballistic Tip, 120 Barnes TTSX) http://www.weatherby.com/vanguardr-camilla.html Savage discontinued their Lady hunter, but maybe you can find one on Gunbroker. https://www.savagearms.com/firearms/centerfire/hunter-series/11-lady-hunter The 6.5 Creedmoor seems to be the answer to all questions these days. There is a great choice in ammo, rifles too, just like the 7mm-08. Case capacities are near equal (and with 120g bullet in each, recoil would be near equal), and I would prefer the 16% larger frontal area of the 7mm. For a scope, you both would have to decide if she is going to dial turrrets or use a BDC type reticle. For a FFP with turrets under $1k, maybe a reliable scope like the SWFA 3-9 or 3-15 (watch for their Black Friday sale). or SFP Nightforce SHV 3-10 with illuminated forceplex reticle. https://www.sportoptics.com/nightforce-shv-rifle-scope-c611.aspx There are numerous second focal plane scope options with BDC. Doug at Cameraland can line you up with good prices and great service.

Sounds like you have some nice seasoning though to add to the broth.

I would bring a chain saw and tow strap for any fallen aspens and firs across the road considering how wet the soils is

Hopes are for fun, enjoyment and success on your hunts.

Sold. Happy shooting.

Ruger Mark lll Target Pistol 22LR, blued, 5 1/2" bull barrel, 1-16" twist, 2 magazines, pic rail, adjustable sights with wrenches. I purchased this used a few years ago from the LGS and have not even shot it. It looks virtually new with a small rub above the loaded chamber indicator as visible in pic and light rub under the barrel near the frame. $300, f2f in Flagstaff, AZDL.

Congrats on your bull and fighting through the pain to hunt.

Correct, VX-III as seen on the gold ring (my mistake)
