I decided to skip the turkey opener last weekend due to the weather and pressure but I went out Monday after lunch. I end up getting to the spot right after a mid-day shower and immediately spotted a hen drying out which was a good sign. Shortly after I start to hear gobbles. Game time...
Salomon and Crispi user here also. Same thoughts.
I recently picked up a pair of Hoka's. They seem very decent so far. Light and good grip like the Salomon but seems built better. I am still not sure how long they will last though. There is only so much durability with the light stuff.
To add to what Steve said. PS, he has killed more animals than you can count and has probably never dialed a scope.

YouTube has a lot of good information.
Take full advantage of that base...
I was blessed enough to help mentor a father/son this past weekend for one of our local NWTF youth-mentored hunts. Unfortunately, the weather did not play nice but we were able to hunt Saturday. Dad did a good job getting his son prepped for the hunts taking him to the range multiple times and...
This is actually a really good deal. Edit, scope not included. Not that good of a deal.

You're overthinking this man. If that 7mm killed a stag and you made a perfect shot. Just repeat the process with a cow elk, it's basically the same thing. I've killed 1/2 dozen cows with my .270 and consider it a perfect cow elk gun, that 7 will certainly do the trick.
That's the biggest issue I have with the small-caliber stuff. Less than ideal shots. That's where your 338 mono REALLY shines in my opinion.
If I look at Colorado, I don't think I would have taken the quartering away shot with a small round and I was losing the opportunity fast with him...
It will be buddy. Just trust the process. I am a little more than 10 years in now and you absolutely are underpaid in the beginning, paid about right in the middle then eventually progress to being "overpaid."
Let us know how it goes. I've been looking at an Ultralite 556 build. I don't see using it out of state as I think it just gives up too much (deer/elk 300-800lbs) but on our 100-150lb deer and pigs it would probably work fairly well.
