I've had good luck anytime after the first full week, as long as hot weather doesn't set in for a few days. Don't pay attention to moon phase, as elk will rut in September no matter what, it's in their DNA. It's the heat that'll slow things down.

Take a weekend trip in July/Aug. and see for yourself.

No need to replace your BH209 load on a multi-day hunt unless you get a major change in weather, i.e. rain/snow, drastic drop or rise in temps/humidity. I keep the muzzle covered with electrical tape and only store the gun in my truck or outside the tent. I do prefer to shoot out or remove the...

As a resident, I'm good with wolverines. Griz, hell No! If I wanted to interact with griz I'd be hunting Western Wyo or Montana.

Not alot of 'lopes on public land in 191. Look to private properties. Outfitter or knock on doors (if local to the area) and be willing to pay to play.

Quality Red Dot but expensive ($700-$800) piece of optic for a smoke pole.

How much did it cost you? 1 MOA? How's the sight aligment with the cheek weld?

Pretty clear to me. Red Dot not to exceed 1X. No restriction on MOA. For hunting purposes I would use the the 1 MOA dot so as not to cover the target as much at ranges past 50 yds.. Personally, I'm using the Williams WP globe/peep sight system. Less to go wrong.

Totally agree. Very rarely is a decent early-mid season tag available to adults in the Secondary Draw. Sometimes they'll be a few tags available for the late season rifle tags when the cold weather sets in or dates are close to Thanksgiving.

You should well with the rifle. Just like shooting fish in a barrel, just kidding. Prepare well and maximize your enjoyment in filling the tag.

After Memorial Day weekend. Figure Tues. 5/28. Hoping for another bull tag in my local unit.

Better yet I was thinking of dialing down my high power scope to 1X and then applying Loctite (Blue) to it.

Got my email late yesterday. Elk unsuccessful, again.

In rainy/snowy conditions during muzzy and rifle seasons I use electrical tape. The pros say it doesn't change POI. If it's raining really bad I put the muzzy inside a contractor and stand hunt (or just head back to camp and drink coffee until the front passes).

Shucks, Crossfire? I'd rather take my chances with a World Class Tasco (sarcasm).:ROFLMAO:
