Found out yesterday that I was drawn for an elk deprivation hunt in SW Montana for next Thursday Aug 15th. Planning to get down there Wed evening and go over things with the land owner and hopefully have a cow elk Hammered the next morning. I'm thinking I should have the first elk of the 2024 season Hammered!
Now I have to decide on what rifle bullet combo to use. The easy button is my 25-284 running the 89gr HHT prototype that I used for the milk jug shoot. I have 20 rounds left and the rifle is all tuned and ready. But then I had said that I would use the 6.5 mm 118gr HHT on the shoulder of an elk. That just means that I have to get it load developed and ready in the next couple of days. I have a BeanMore and a 6.5 saum that would work. We will see if I can get one of them loaded up and drop verified at distance.
