Why no .338?

I had the privilege to shoot a Ferret 50 last fall and its was crazy accurate with handloads. Not a repeater but it is another budget friendly option. Was told by the owner that quite a few comps are being won with Ferret 50's.

IN Have been wishing for an Atlas for some time now, but paying for school takes precedence. Great gesture on you guys' parts.

An an Idahoan, this is a welcome sight. I have harvested one wolf in two years of pursuing them in earnest, did not harvest an elk this year in a hard to draw unit because of the wolves in the area. If I could get time off, I would be participating in this event. Oh well, I will just wait for my...

Well its a new day, chop chop how did they do. I'm interested in what the norma does with them as well, since mine just got back from a rebarrel.

Just after thanksgiving scored my first with my homemade e-caller, buddy shot him in the hind leg with a 22-250 and the 30-06 ended it.

On the coaching topic, I see no reason to forbid it. How about running shooters through the stages in pairs, one from limited and one from open. They are not competing against each other and this may encourage some coaching. Just try to keep sponsored team members from being paired up to keep...

I like it and would be happy to join. Quite a bit of land to have a match here in southern Idaho. Would be nice to have matches within a few hours driving and not across the country.

This old girl took a 208 Amax in the chest just last week.

I challenge howled a pack and the reaction was very aggressive. All came in within 100 yards, and surprisingly hung around for about 30 seconds after the shot. Worth a try, just might have been a fluke...

If I fill my elk tag in a couple weeks I am willing to come show you the ropes, killed a wolf last year. Not too much different than any other predator hunting, same principles apply.

Would have hated to be that buck that took a bullet from that .50 haha. Looks like fun, getting excited for my bull hunt as well.

Bringing this one back to the top, I'm from the Buhl/Twin Falls area.

Turns out I am still going to hunt this unit this year, found a few really nice bulls to hunt in the burn of all places. Good luck to everyone...
