KC Campfire Tracker Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 6,981 Likes: 2 Colorado Springs, Colorado USA	Originally Posted by 340mag If I back-pack into deep creek or grizzly creek drainage, several miles into the canyons I hunt, I generally take my 35 whelen 7600 slide action , but I'd point out that the rifle choice is more due to familiarity like an old friend, This year I hiked 7 to 8 miles each day. I could have hiked farther but I generally spend time sitting also. I backpack to hunt for elk also and I also use a heavy rifle for the same reason as 340mag. I'm familiar with this rifle, that breeds confidence so I'm competent with it. It's a T/C Icon Weathershield 30-06 pushing out 180 grain NPs at 2,880 fps. I carries a Leupold VX-3 3.5x10x40. It's heavy and ugly but it shoots MOA and it's nearly indestructible. KC Wind in my hair, Sun on my face, I gazed at the wide open spaces, And I was at home.
