The Flow is about 500CFS right now. It is usually +-100CFS this time of year. The river will be wide, no doubt. Just hoping there isn’t too much debris in the water and that the crossings are manageable

My .270 loves them. I’ve killed a couple animals including an antelope at 400ish and a BIG bodied muley at 200. They were pass throughs with good expansion and nice exit holes. They are tricky to load though. They seem really depth sensitive

I haven’t missed a year in probably 20 years. End of april-mid may (give or take a week) on a normal year is usually a guarantee. I’ll be the guinea pig i guess. Worst case scenario, i get out of town and cell phone service for a few days

Say no more fam.

I just don’t worry about them. Come across them all the time too. They usually want less to do with you than you do with them. Most of them get a free pass, but when i come across a hyper aggressive one they usually get taken out of the gene pool.

I’ve heard they are right there with Kaibabs. A notch under meopta and zeiss

that is a pretty impressive set. If you drew a line east and west across the unit at about rose peak, i would guess 90% of the elk in the unit would be found north of that line. there are a few scattered out all through the unit though. Grey's peak is about as far south as any real population exists.

Is that top set coues? Mind posting any more photos of it?

Man, that’s a tough one. Those two idiots look and act the EXACT way that the anti’s think hunters do. Unreal. String em up.

Last time they went to a draw for U1 archery, the herd improved a lot and very quickly. I grew up in unit 1 and hunt it a lot for deer and elk and i am happy to see it go back to a draw. U1 won’t be anything like kaibab but it does have great genetics and if it stays a draw, it’ll be similar to 3a/3c. My dad spoke to a game warden in 27 this year who told him that a store in unit 27 sold 800 nonresident archery deer tags in january alone. He also said to expect to see many units go to draw for archery, especially in January. It’s a hard reality, but with the number of archery hunters now and the level of efficiency, something had/has to be done. You can’t continue with near statewide OTC archery deer tags and expect populations and age class to improve. I am sure the reason why they plan on cutting out 1600 tags is to compensate for the exponential increase in OTC archery hunters.

What about a turkey out of a tree while standing on a road?

Pretty sure that video is from january 2018. Nothing ever happened to the dude

One is brand new, but what kind of tread is left on the other 4?

Packs a lot more punch than a 6.5CM. Ballistics similar to 6.5x284 and is supposed to be inherently accurate. I have been curious on the round as well. I hope it throws a lot of water on the 6.5CM fire personally, as it appears to be a much better option.

Save your money and get a manfrotto 700rc2. I think they’re better, as do a lot of people, and they’re under $100

I made the mistake of buying bargain callers twice before i got a fox pro. There are some other callers that are as good, but at the same price point

Does this have a tall frame or regular?

Sling lead till they’re dead. Do not jump up and celebrate if they drop after the first shot. Stay in your scope for at least a minute or two in case they get up. I have seen a LOT of bulls get back up and haul a$$ . High shoulder shots, if they do not hit the spine, will a lot of times jar their spine hard enough to knock their feet out from under them but they’ll get right back up and take off.

Too funny. With that much sh!t thrown at the wall, a turd or two is bound to stick.

sorry to hear that Bob. Hang in there

If you hunt a lot, you’ll go through ultra bags pretty quickly. The weight saving is not worth the durability sacrifice IMO

Hornady brass is not known for consistency. you could go through 99 rounds and be just fine but the case capacity might be a lot different on round 100 and cause this kind of thing to happen. Like others have said as well, 6.5cm is not a hot rod. I've been riding the 6.5cm hate train since the day it came out. Winchester came out with a MUCH better 6.5 cartridge in the 60's, the .264 win mag. If you want magnum velocities, shoot a magnum cartridge. that being said, i shoot about 4 grains over MAX recommended charge out of my .264 win mag without any issues at all. i worked my way up to it from a mid charge and the faster i shoot it, the better the rifle likes it. Also, using Lapua, Nosler or Norma brass (or sorting the brass you have) will give you more consistency with pressure signs

Lol. Didn’t even notice. Post corrected

.

what time are you guys thinking? what time was it last year?
