[QUOTE="cfvickers, post: 401063, member: 25488"] I have since learned this. I appreciate the info though. That is mostly why I recommend it for Elk. I know it went through 20 inches of a fairly large deer, 2 ribs and the shoulder blade and kept rolling. This convinced me that it would surely make it through one elk shoulder and into the heart/lung cavity with enough damage to dispatch one in an ethical amount of time. Ideally I lung shoot everything, and for deer I prefer something more explosive like a berger VLD, but this would def be my choice for elk. And my gun will put five of them at 3000 fps inside a dime at 100 yards. That is not the utmost in velocity even for my 25-06 but it is good enough to cover my square and very accurate. [/QUOTE]
