My son Joe used up his preference points and drew a coveted bull elk tag for one of the Uncompahgre Units and though I am not walking too well I am going to give it my best to get him on a good bull. He will use his Encore in .308 with my handloads using 165 grain Nosler Partitions.
I drew a bull elk tag and will use my Encore 209X50 with Jim Shockey Gold powder and 295 grain Black Belts. I also drew a left-over cow elk tag I want to fill with my custom .475 Linebaugh or my 209X50.
Well guys I was fortunate enough to kill a good bull with my Encore! It happened Tuesday in the fog and rain. I will hopefully be posting a photo if I can figure out my current computer mess! I also plan to write a story, it was quite a hunt.
