[QUOTE="Carp1, post: 2687939, member: 118840"] My daughter took a bull elk at 794 yards with a 6.5 CM loaded with 156 EOL Berger. Not sure of the velocity because she used the guide's gun. That was the first time she shot that gun. My 270 that we took was only set up for 500 yards. She does practice out to 500 yards pretty regularly with me so I had confidence in her to make the shot and knew the custom built gun the guide was caring could make the shot as well. High shoulder shot so he dropped and couldn't get back up. We could see him throwing his head around but we couldn't get another shot because of some cedar tree branches, so we drove over there at finished him off with another shot. We didn't see an exit hole from the fist shot. [/QUOTE]
