Thanks All,
Let' s see....
(1) I used the M70 in 375HH with 300 gr Nosler Partitions, the sight in hadn' t changed from last year and it was all ready to go.

In the weeks prior to the season, when I mounted the Leupold 3.5x10 in the CZ rings on the 416 Rigby and I ran out of upward adjustment to bring the scope to zero; hence, I was short on time to mess with it and put it off for use next year. [>:]
(2) Camp all went up and back in an Expedition with a 6 by 12 trailer, a pickup with 8 foot bed with contractors box, and a full size Bronco. [X(]
(3) Highlights? Yep, that' s the part I talked about, but trust me.... there were some challenging (to say the least) moments --- and honestly, those are the ones that build character. [:@]
(4) You are right, good people is key. I' d say even more important than getting game.
Never Go Undergunned,
