I've watched this thread since it's inception. I did not post on the subject as I've never even shot a 30-30 or ever seen a real live elk!

But!!!
EKM I liked your post at first. I thought I had found someone with a lot of expierience to gain useful info from. Now you act like the god of elk hunting and we are supposed to believe everything you say.
This is 2003! We have running water and street lights now.
Your trying to tell somebody his gun ain't worth a **** just because new one's have been invented.

And what's this Bull**** score thing your made up???? huh???

You want to impress somebody, talk about you expieriences and not about what "Joe should do".

Iallays wunnerd y yourn an blojobs and whoevert mulekisser's is post alays faller ech udin'

You have a computer and are obviosly long winded and contrary to popular belief, amazingly very expierienced.

TELL US!!! WE WANT TO LEARN!!!

Just don't feed us BS and think we'll listen.

Good Luck. Capt Brad.
