Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting Old Shoulder Friendly Elk Rifle

Yep, hers is a T3 .308.

Started first with a wood stock cut down for her smaller stature. That is now set aside for her younger sisters. Now her rifle wears a full size standard stock. I had the barrel trimmed to 20" and a brake put on, so recoil is minimal. She shoots 155 Scenars exclusively.

The first scope was an older American made Burris 3-9. Now it wears a fixed 6x SWFA zeroed for 300 yards, as late season elk are usually about that far, and anything closer is still in the "point and shoot" kill zone.








Now she is 20 and working as a cowboy in the Frank Church. Helping an outfitter run pack strings.
