1. ELK HUNTING IN MONTANA
One of the most iconic hunting experiences in North America is a horseback elk hunt in the Rocky Mountains. This is done from a tent camp. Montana is an excellent state for this hunting trip due to its expansive mountain ranges. This hunting experience is ideal for people who love horses and want to experience a grand adventure. They can either book a guide or do it themselves. During this type of hunting, the horses allow hunters to cover vast areas without getting trampled.
Carry a rifle with a 6.5mm round-up or better through the 338 Magnums for this type of hunt. This will work fine most of the time if placed in the vitals. However, if you are serious about hunting big game, use a 7mm or .308 rifle instead. The best time to hunt elk in Montana is when the animals are most active in the September rut. This is when they are most likely to show their true colors.
