37.5 gallons of diesel @ $4.89/gallon = $183.38 Lost 30-06 case at shot = $0.25 180 gr. Nosler Partition (blem) = $0.30 60 (or so) gr. H4831 = $0.16 Primer = $0.02
Still ticked at losing the case.
I only lost 10 pounds, and the meat was in the truck about 50 hours after he died. That's a pretty easy hunt. No shortage of moose. Very popular area, too, but a bit of access work up front meant that I didn't see anyone else while hunting, and had four or five comparable bulls in the general area, based on my estimates while glassing. Tough to convince me that hunting on the cheap in AK is hopeless.
