300EG going to elk camp - 10/05/19
Got home from setting up elk camp 4 hours drive south , East and South of St. Maries.
Been scouting for the last couple weeks and have found several areas where the range of the 300 will work.
My EG is wearing a Lightfoot mount and a Denver Redfield
Going to work up loads today .
Backup for longer range is going to be the 110 3006 I got from Fireball2.
I have loads worked up for it that will be good to 400 yards though I limit myself to 300 with maybe a stretch to 350.
Can only see out of one eye anymore . Lucky it's my scope eye!
Would hate to have to become a leftist at this stage.
Had 3 moose almost walking through camp night before last. Big old cow with last year's calf and this year's calf. Got exciting for a while when this year's calf came within 30 feet of the fire. Momma showed whites of her eyes and bristled like only a moose can.
Will report back after the hunt.
Just wish I had some savage headstamped brass to make it an all savage hunt.
