2017 muzzleloader cow
« on: October 08, 2017, 05:07:52 PM »
Heres my 2017 Washington elk. Lucky enough to draw a cow tag this year and made the best of it! Spotted the herd about a mile away, worked in on them and got to 130 yds. I stood up from behind the sage, took aim and shot! When the smoke cleared there she was laying there!

Nice work.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Yes I had the traditions vortek before and was a great rifle. A buddy was selling the knight and its been shot 5 times so in decided to pick it up. Shot them both and the knight was the winner for me! The thumbhole stock and peep sight are really nice and feels a lot better in my hands.
