[QUOTE="Ward Thurman, post: 1975091, member: 109209"] 30-06 is the standard by which all other cartridges are measured. I have looked at the books and on a 180 gr bullet, the 300 Win mag only gets you about 200-300 fps more than the '06. The photo in my header is my son's elk taken with a 100 year old Enfield in '06. If you don't mind the recoil and you want to go big, stepping up to a 338 something or other will give you a lot more wallop for elk at the big distances. [/QUOTE]
