    I want to build a 7mm

    I figured you were joking. Honestly, I didn't even know they were still around. Probably should have explained a bit better....I'm not really averse to recoil, but was thinking shooting could probably be more pleasant and a bit cheaper too. I love my 300 rum. But it's also heavy. This is why I...

    I want to build a 7mm

    I love the looks of this one, but it seems like making the brass is really hard? Do you have experience with it?

    I want to build a 7mm

    I've looked into the blaser, and I'm not sure why it isn't more popular, but the scarcity makes me nervous.

    I want to build a 7mm

    At over $4 per piece of empty brass, that's a hard no. :)

    I want to build a 7mm

    Hi everyone, I'm wanting to build a custom rifle, and prefer a 7 mm as I already have a 300 RUM. My ideal rifle would shoot either the 168 grain cutting edge MTH OR a 180 grain berger close to 2900/3000 out of a barrel no longer than 24 inches, preferably as short as 22. My goal is an elk...

    Llamas!

    Yes, that's Beau that I referenced. I've been in touch with him quite a bit, but he won't have any for sale this year.

    Unit 53 Colorado

    I hunted that unit last year. Little elk basin had a lot of guys either hunting it or trying to get there. Timber is THICK! We saw some cows on Browning mountain several days in a row, but never saw bulls there and couldn't find a real good way to get over there from camp. Heard one bugle to the...

    Llamas!

    Didn't know where else to post this, so if it's in the wrong place, let me know. I'm on the search for good pack llamas. I've done a ton of research and I'm ready to take the plunge. I've been in contact with Beau from WRTL, but he won't have any for sale until perhaps 2020. Can't find any...

    Wyoming bound

    Well, I finally drew a Wyoming tag. This will be my fifth elk hunt, but going to try with a rifle rather than CO OTC archery this go round. Curious on thoughts on what the elk will be feeding on in Southwest WY at the beginning of general rifle season. The unit were looking at doesn't have...

    Enlightened Gear

    I have a 10 degree and absolutely love it. I've never had the draft problems I hear about, but I tend to sleep warm. Haven't used it below 20 degrees yet.

    Stone Glacier

    I know many on here use mystery ranch. And that was my first pack. No real complaints, it's a bombproof set up. I just never felt like it was perfect for my long torso and curved back. So I ordered a stone glacier x curve Man, this thing has been life changing. Weight is weight, but this pack...

    Early Season Colorado GMU 53

    Any idea which of the creeks would be more likely to hold water? I understand if you're not willing to share that. Just not familiar enough to know which ones typically hold more water.

    Early Season Colorado GMU 53

    I'll be in that same area during the same time. Never hunted this particular area or this early, so not sure what to expect. I'm planning on putting on the miles during the day to find wallow and glassing early and late. Hope it works out!
