[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 877488, member: 13632"] It's so hard to beat the the 270 WSM and 165 Matrix combo for over all, I'm playing the the 6.5's but really there is not one made that will take elk out like what your doing with the 270, the 160 Matrix maybe but that remains to be seen. Your 270 will run with or over any 7mm and the 30 cals start getting interesting with a little more magnum size cartridges. Personally for long range I've gone up to the 338's to see a significant upgrade in long range performance but where your not wanting to be on that road maybe a serious look at the 6mm's. A 105 and especially a 115 Berger will put down elk with ease, they are spectacular on deer and goats, the ballistics are there for long range shooting as well. Something like a 6x47 Lapua or 243 would be kind of a small LR assassin kind of rig and it would be different than what your rockn now! [/QUOTE]
