Change of plans for my elk hunt
Found some odd ball powerbelts that i can buy from a gunbroker dealer. 400 grain Aerotip Powerbelts. I am going to order a few packages and sight the Omega in with those and call it good.
Went for a hike Late this evening and my nephew spotted an egg on the forest floor. After some searching, he found a nest with 6 hatched eggs and turkey feathers lining the nest
Some deer and elk poo and tracks running down the mountain.

RE: Change of plans for my elk hunt
okay new update
Going with the 405 AT's as the previous post about the 400's were Hollow Points.
Just bought 2 packages of the 405 AT's for $16 a pack, cleaned the store out of them lol. Bought a pound of pyrodex RS for $18 and a life size "at 100 yards" elk target for $5
May go back and spend another $16 for flip up scope covers that i will need. Hate taking a scope out in the woods without covers!
My unit i picked may be out of permission permits that are issued out during the draw. Have to make a call tuesday and see whats left. I still have permission so far to hunt private but will double and triple check and have the land owner write me out a permission slip for me to have on me while i hunt.
So far so good.
80g pyrodex RS and the 405 AT will be some bad elk poison should i get one i one in my sights!
