RE: .204 for elk....
Given the number of big game hunters we have here, it is surprising how many of them do not appear to eat while on hunting trips.... either that or for most, the extent of eating is: breakfast at home, sack lunch in the field, supper back at home and then sleep at home, then repeat.
Remote/away from home hunts make menu more critical, unless you got someone who is "taking care of it for you."
