RE: Which Colorado GMU?

20 and 29 tend to have more access issues, lots of private land
there are elk but it can be tough to get at them; also more hikers

18,28 have fewer access issues and fewer hikers, but you...

RE: What's a good .270 weight / brand for elk?

150 partitions, 140 accubonds, or a few other premium bullets would be a great choice

for practice, if you reload, you might cook up some light loads with SR4759 or IMR4227

or, I believe...

if you don't have local shops w/ used guns, try Gun...

RE: CO Unit 61 for Elk

no stories or suggestions, but my dad and I have been interested in 61 as well, with fewer points (so more waiting)

it does look like parts of 61 can be quite rough, some of those canyons look...

RE: elk gun

Put some 150 nosler partition in that .270 and take her hunting!

there are some reduced recoil loads out now you can have her practice with, IIRC both remington and federal are selling them

RE: SCOPE ADVISE

with optics it helps to first set your price point, then shop

That said, you can get a lot of scope these days for $200.

I've been happy with scopes from Leupold, Kahles, and Bushnell....

RE: my 2004 bighorn ram

Ant,

I don't really understand what you mean about both sides not being able to make good arguments, but yes, it's not the issue here and I probably should've ignored that post. I was just...

RE: Elk..Colorado..2006 season, public land

yes, especially once the guns start going off elk=steep

by the numbers, if you just want to kill an elk get a cow tag in one of the areas around craig or meeker

lots of elk but also lots of...

RE: binocular suggestion?

7x or 8x42 is more versatile; better field of view (better in timber), easier to hold steady, bigger exit pupil (i.e. better at twilight unless you go to 10x50s)

10x42 is better for open...

RE: What premium bullet for elk?

every bullet mentioned will work, but I'll cast another vote for the 160 nosler partition

shoots flat, and kills fast

the new 160 accubond looks interesting, but I don't have any...

RE: Dimension of elk vital area?

I'd also say about 2' though that might stretch it at the edges

RE: 30-06 or 7mm

you can't go wrong either way

the 7 mag gives you about another 50 yards of "point blank" range (holding crosshairs on vitals and still hitting them), and it'll typically weigh more for a given...
