I've been hunting elk for 9 years, both DIY and guided. If I were able to start over, I'd have started with guided before I tried DIY as...

I have hunted DIY in CO and used a guide in ID, AZ, and NM and killed elk in all these states. The only time I didn't get an elk on a...

I am going to make one more comment and then I am probably done. I shoot every day in CO and several times when I am in AZ. I think I...

45 grains Varget and a 180 SST. I will be shooting this today at 500 yards.
