That 340 packs a lot of azz down range! Nice critter pics too!

Perfect elk rifle? Not for me. I simply don’t feel the need to burn that much powder. I have an old M70 in 280 that goes well under 7 pounds before mounts and scope. About 7 1/2 all up? I’d not fret shooting anything with it, even big bears. I like a lightish, compact gun. On the occasion I get stuck crawling through thick brush or climbing over a stretch of blow downs, it’s nice to have a short and light rifle in hand. No way I would make it through slung.



Great looking land! Good luck drawing that elk tag. What state?
