[QUOTE="Marine sniper, post: 2145187, member: 4768"] Yes, but you have to ask- what if you hit the elk in the front shoulder and the bullet blows up without getting into the lungs or breaks both front shoulders? Anyone who has hunted 4 legged animals knows they run almost as well on 3 legs as 4. Of course shot placement is the #1 factor and just about any bullet that goes through both lungs is going to result in a pretty quick death, but it is those less than ideal shots that make me want a little insurance. That is why I hunt elk with a .338 Lapua improved and a good bullet. [/QUOTE]
