[QUOTE="wyowinchester, post: 1131111, member: 50441"] Thanks Guys; I had the pleasure of taking one of my boys and my, almost 8 year old grandson with me. It was a left over cow tag hunt to fill the freezers. The first day we finally spotted a herd of elk and put the sneak on them. When we got so we could get a shot, we got busted. They scattered out to just over 200yds. when they stopped to look. I dropped one with a shot in the neck and they left. We dressed and loaded her up and went searching for more. Around 4:00 that afternoon my boy found half a dozen more and the hunt was on. We tried to get close but there was no way. They were on a saddle top and we couldn't get any closer, so my boy suggest we dial up the scope. It took some time making sure the figures were right. With a solid prone rest, I took the shot and you've got the rest. After mine fell, My boy got behind my rifle with me spotting. They came with in 500yds but we couldn't get set up fast enough to kill another one. All in all a great day hunting. It took two more days to get up on more cows for my boy. We finally found a couple and got to 274yds where he shot the big girl in head, where she dropped down over a cliff about 30 feet down. TAKE YOUR KID'S HUNTING [/QUOTE]
