[QUOTE="Chopaka81, post: 292448, member: 9217"] Amen! Reading the original post, clearly indicates that the ranges employed were less than 450 yds. I would agree at those ranges the -06 based cartridges do very well - on deer. There is something about ELK - sometimes they will bang-flop with a single 100gr 243 round. Other times they will 3 or 4 rds from a 30-06 180gr load and go a 100 yds or more. These days, hunting elk on public land, you can end up with 2 or more hunters shootng and arguing over who's elk it is. Here in WA it happens every year. There is a lot to be said for the high velocity, high impact hydro-static shock theory that Roy Weatherby advocated. Then again, in my professional employment, I have made alot of money off guys who have tried to redefine the laws of pyshics and declare them null and void. [/QUOTE]
