And speaking of strong I got hung up on your super-human feat of strength wherein you "gained 4,500' of elevation in 1/2 mile" - or 2,640'! Yeah, me too. It's hard to find a place with 4,500 in a half mile, much less climb it. I think Dan mistyped, it was actually a 2500' gain in a half mile, about 10-12 switchbacks. We are pretty much used to Dan's exaggerations.

Mystery Ranch pack for sure, 6500 version I would believe. That would be correct. I have that bag and a CrewCab, and all my Eberlestocks got donated to hillbillies that needed them worse than me. for my build, its been the most comfortable pack I've ever owned (and there's been more than a few)

Thanks for the pics Dan, some more country I would love to hunt.
JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H

We are pretty much used to Dan's exaggerations. Well, why let the truth get in the way of a good story? I actually looked at that topo... The pic where Ed was satnding is about a 2500' gain. To the top (the old lookout tower) is at about 7500' (another mile in) trailhead is about 3100' I did lie to keep the locations specifics vague... BECAUSE I don't want to see any other [bleep] hunting in there. It is in the top 10 ridgelines for max elevation in my area of operation, and features many sub alpine meadows. However, Calvin can still go [bleep] himself. i only eve see what he writes when others quote him, as he'll be on my ignore list indefinately.

Awww, c'mon, sweet lil' Calvin?  I have reached a real turning point with my knees where going DOWNHILL 4500 feet (or 2500, lol) hurts as much as going UP! Damn skiing..........

Looks like a great time. Whats with all the dead timber? it looks like pics I've seen of Mount St. Helens, My uncle was near there when it blew up, said it was a real mess for miles................Hillbilly. The pics of dead timber are in various "Burns" in NW montana. Ask ElCope about the Stockholm March last September  Slides tend to grow quite a bit of widtch after burns... Ed, you got that pic of the big ass slide under the launch ramp? I forgot to rip that one last night

Thats a large part of why I use trekking poles with a pack on. I can climb anything, anytime and nothing hurts. Downhill tears me up bad. Do more lunges when you're at the gym (and see a physical therapist too, and do what they say) I haven't had any trouble with my left knee for a few months, we'll see how it holds up this spring with a pack on. What tore mine up was pounding on it all those years in JuJitsu

I'll have to look into those.

Once I'm warmed up I'm ok, but going downhill to start the day, really gets my left knee. That's a Bball injury... skiing strengthens the quads/knees immensely, but I'd be lying if I didn't say there's some real wear-and-tear that happens too...
But [bleep] (now you got me bleepin', lol) just about everything worth doing takes a toll.
I've always been intrigued by martial arts but the injury risk spooks me, especially at age 45. I think if I could survive the first year or two relatively injury free I'd be ok, but getting into any knd of real sparring shape would be... adventurous.

I said simply,that in the range you love to cite,that the "issues" are imagined and would squarely state that you are in wayyyyyyyyyyyy over your head...to hint you've a clue about rifles. I own these "affected" wares and curiously enough,due to their performance,pards have went nuts procuring same. But,we all shoot,which of course do skew things,though not in your favor. None of which is secreted.
Further,Kimber has really dropped the .284" ball and hamstrung their 224 and 243 wares,due to twist rates.
Feel free to Imagine your way out of those facts...just don't forget to do so aloud.
Laffin'!...................
What a complete and total dumbazz, though you did sidestep the original question with aplomb. So again, Larry, why did Kimber re-design the 84M and 8400 with a 10* shallower ramp? You've already said it's due to beancounters, which of course is laughable. So why was the feedramp changed Larry? PS, try to stay on topic if your meds allow...
