[QUOTE="luke, post: 460625, member: 15102"] I was on a cow hunt last month with a buddy and his girlfriend. She had a cow tag and was huntin with a 270. It was bear season so niether him or I went without our guns. He had his 300WM and I had my 300RUM. The Cow we found I ranged at 503 yards. Both me and him agreeing that the 270 was a bit light for that range decided that the RUM may be to much (for her not the elk). She laid down on the bipod and I put my pack under the rear of the rifle. She made the shot hitting right in the shoulder. The 180 accubond blew through both shoulders and left an exit hole in the hide about the size of a 50cent peice. Had I not been there I would not have believed it myself. [/QUOTE]
