Montana Rifle Company Model 1999 505 Gibbs

Almost all my workouts are with dumbbells, even squats. When I train for the mountains I have an 80# bag of concrete on my pack frame and a 20# kettle bell in each hand. I walk for miles like that so when I carry my 11.5# rifle in my hands... I'm good with it.

You can adjust your workouts to accommodate your hunting goals too. It just depends on how you want to approach it.
That's a pretty good workout!
 
Man. I thought I was doing some working out! I'm gonna have to step up my game, you're doing some hard core workouts! I need to start carrying some weights in my hands while walking. I always have had a girlie grip. Ha ha

I feel like a girl at times when I'm working out! I did squats and lunges with 75s. Did 10 squats and 12 lunges, 60 sec rest and repeat for a total of 3 sets. Then ballet squats with 75s and stiff-leg deadlifts, same rest period. Then calf and shoulders same format.
 
I do a small mountain in ca quite often 4 mile round trip and some sort of work out everyday that I can my favorite exercise is squats. For elk hunting I get up to 465 for 5 reps. Deadlifts is my second favorite.

It has been a while since I got under the bar. I never went over 405 would do a set of 10 with it. Leg press machine was fun too, most people don't seem to go very low with it.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
