If I find a legal buck,by damn I'm shooting! That's my motto on elk too. I held out for about 2 minutes last time though, but no bigger bull showed up. I had to shoot another spike....
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Any legal elk is a good elk. Especially if it's close to a road.

gunner, You just kicked me in the azz. I have a pretty nice pre-war M70 270 Win that I bought some years ago because the price was right. I have yet to shoot it. I have no hunting planned for fall but maybe on the hogs in March. Wow. That's a beauty, Ed! Good luck with it. Looks like a perfect package.

You need to grab you up a 300 H&H or custom pre-64 and join the fun LD, I've got a custom stocked pre-64 270 too.

10-4 Elk, that mulie is in deep chit and don't even know it ;] GSP, great idea, don't forget to extend applications to those 18 to 30, we need someone to go to the bottom of the canyons for dead deer and elk.
