[QUOTE="Michael Bent, post: 319024, member: 19685"] if it still matters i have been shooting nosler ballistic silver tips 150gr. they are a good round and work will out to at least 500 yards for putting down an elk. The most important thing about elk is shot placement though and what i use and agree with the Best of the West is a high shoulder shot. this is meant to be a spine shot or a miss over the top. this works good because when the animal is hit it doesn't move. i had been using this before i saw that the best of the west uses it but just you-tube best of the west shot placement. he has a great explanation and description to why the shot placement works. Check it out just remember placement is the most important part. an elk is a tough beast but that doesn't mean that a well placed shot from even a small round won't so the job. [/QUOTE]
