I have a set trigger on my 85. does it influence that also? I don't want the light setting getting lighter. the normal trigger setting i find to heavy but i am reluctant to change it because it is a set trigger.
Other than you can't get a permit for Roosevelt elk without one unless you are a BC resident. We take plenty of DIY Rocky Mountain elk at home... only way to do this one is guided :)
@outdoorquesttv9946 wow even as a Canadian resident you still need a bc guide? I hadn't heard/understood that properly. Though it was only for out of country hunters. Why is this?
@@tolt1776 With some species that are over the counter, a Canadian resident can hunt with BC resident without a guide but for all draw species even non resident Canadians must go through an outfitter. The odds of drawing one of these Roosevelt tags for a BC resident is astronomical. Only option for any non resident is to use an outfitter's tag.
Great video, 80 lbs is a lot huh, Can you tell me what model of Optilock rings you used and the height of them and the outer diameter of your objective scope end. Have a 30mm tube and 58 mm objective end on my scope and mounting on a Sako L 579 Forester👍👍👍👍
I have a Sako L 579 Forester with dove tail mounts on the receiver, what Optilock rings model are you using and are they high med. or low ? I saw theirs but not sure how they measure them, do you know if the height on their chart is from the base of the rifle to the inner low base in the ring, like the 36.5 - 40.5 is that would be where the scope sits in the ring. Great video and what model rings an height are the ones you use. Great info, been looking for this info for hours, keep em coming . 👍👍👍👍
Leather lined is best. For my tall (9") boots I've had to go Goretex but they're leather lined too (Zamberlan Sella). My lower boots are Zamberlan Latemar with no GTX and just leather lined. I've made my own leather insoles for my boots so no stinky foam.
Looks like a fun hunt! Congrats on a nice trophy and great shot. Always tough when you have animals moving by and in front/behind of each other. Love the European traditions, thanks for showing that as well. Did you happen to get your Mouflon measured / could you share size please?
And I thought I invented this when the MC in my latest novel had to haul a small buck through several miles in the tall grass prairie. I have the antlers protruding above his head... this is possible as the Native boy has strapped his quiver behind, which supports the neck upright and still allows him access to the arrows. Let me know if that sounds plausible.
I just got certified end of last year I will try go attempt my first hunting this hunting season, there is still so much that I would like to know, unfortunately I don't know anyone that is hunting still huge learning curve in front of me.
Common deer are deer that constitute the genus Cervus, they are the first deer genus ever named and described, they are native everywhere except for South America, Oceania, and Antarctica, there are six extant species of common deer: the Red Deer (Cervus elaphus), the Mediterranean Deer (Cervus corsicanus), the Barbary Deer (Cervus barbarus), the Caspian Deer (Cervus maral), the Hangul (Cervus hanglu), and the Elk/Wapiti (Cervus canadensis), the red deer has ten recognized subspecies: the Crimean Red Deer (Cervus elaphus brauneri), the Pannonian Red Deer (Cervus elaphus pannnoniensis), the Alpine Red Deer (Cervus elaphus hippelaphus), the Mesola Red Deer (Cervus elaphus italicus), the Iberian Red Deer (Cervus elaphus hispanicus), the Swedish Red Deer (Cervus elaphus elaphus), the Norwegian Red Deer (Cervus elaphus atlanticus), the Scottish Red Deer (Cervus elaphus scoticus), the English Red Deer (Cervus elaphus englandensis), and the Irish Red Deer (Cervus elaphus hibernicus), the mediterranean deer has two recognized subspecies: the Corsican Deer (Cervus corsicanus corsicanus) and the Sardinian Deer (Cervus corsicanus sardinianus), the barbary deer has no subspecies recognized, the caspian deer has no subspecies recognized, the hangul has three recognized subspecies: the Kashmir Hangul (Cervus hanglu hanglu), the Bactrian Hangul (Cervus hanglu bactrianus), and the Yarkand Hangul (Cervus hanglu yarkandensis), and the elk or wapiti has fifteen recognized subspecies: the Tibetan Elk (Cervus canadensis wallichii), the Kansu Elk (Cervus canadensis kansuensis), the Sichuan Elk (Cervus canadensis macneilli), the Mongolian Elk (Cervus canadensis mongoliensis), the Alashan Elk (Cervus canadensis alashanicus), the Tian Shan Elk (Cervus canadensis songaricus), the Manchurian Elk (Cervus canadensis xanthopygus), the †Korean Elk (Cervus canadensis coreanus), the Siberian Elk (Cervus canadensis sibiricus), the Roosevelt's Elk (Cervus canadensis roosevelti), the Rocky Mountain Elk (Cervus canadensis nelsoni), the Tule Elk (Cervus canadensis nannodes), the †Merriam's Elk (Cervus canadensis merriami), the Manitoba Elk (Cervus canadensis manitobensis), and the †Algonquin Elk (Cervus canadensis canadensis).
I dont love it or hate it. I remember when it first came out, so i gave it a serious look at it. It didn't impress me for hunting applications or versatility. I however really like it for for long range target plinking. I believe where a lot of hate comes from it is the overwhelming marketing hype of it. People were out hunting animals unethically with it and hunting animals above its punching weight.
What was it for the hunting ability that you didn't like? I watched a guy shoot his buck at 445 yards with a 6.5 creedmoor. Muzzle velocity of about 2750 with a barnes LRX
Heck Yeah! Fill that Freezer! Looks like it was a fun morning. Just make sure you pack a lunch for the bride. Always remember, happy wife, happy life, lol. Keep up the good work!
That was super cool! Always neat to hear the smack especially in open country. Difficult to view but it seemed as sig something else had “bumped” them as they were all looking back/departing with some urgency from where they had been. Congrats and a great segment!
Hi, nice video. I find it very helpful. I just bought a set of rings and bases for a T3X. They aren’t cheap. My question is: does it matter which way the base/rings face? I ask this because I usually point my rings backwards to have my scope as far back as possible. Thanks
Im the opposite I wear leather lined in the winter because they seem warmer and goretex in the summer because it feels like a lighter cooler boot but i do find a leather lined boot much more comfortable the way it shapes to the feet unlike goretex which the shape you get is the shape it stays. I would say for anyone buying leather lined boots, definitely fit your boot in the goretex lined version of that boot first, then go for the same size in the leather lined version of them boots and they should be perfect, because you can try on 1 size up or down in leather lined boots and they all feel like they fit great, until you wear them out the store realise they dont fit and you can't return them.
Perhaps the reason your feet feel warmer when wearing leather lined boots in winter is that your feet are drier as sweat can get out much faster than with membrane linings. I have two very similar Zamberlan boots - one pair leather lined only, and one leather lined with a goretex membrane also. Both pairs are Goodyear welted construction with identical sole units. The leather lined without the goretex are warmer when it's cold and cooler when it's warm. The membrane linings are really only needed on the boots with them because the upper has fancy flex zones at the ankles which aren't at all waterproof so the boots would otherwise leak like sieves. The ones without the membrane are as comfy as slippers, the leather/goretex ones slightly less so, and are heavier but marginally better if they'll be submerged most of the time.....marginally. IMO, this marginal difference isn't worth the extra expense or weight, and will be lost entirely when the goretex breaks down, which it will, making resoling pointless when that happens. Guess which ones I won't buy again.
My Weatherby is an inertia driven gun and it cycles everything from cheap bulk bird shot to 3” 1-3/4 oz buckshot. I cleaned a Benelli SBE 2 for a friend and to be honest after seeing the insane amount of fouling and build up that the system could handle without malfunctioning, I was very impressed.
