[QUOTE="Tracer, post: 206284, member: 5742"] Now over the years, when younger hunters asked me about hunting big game mainly elk, I tell them that the 30-06 caliber with 180 grain bullet would be my minimum choice. I have personally seen and range the distance of a bull killed in Wyoming at 445 yards. The choice of the bullet by the hunter was a 180 grain Nosler partition. So those of you who might have the magnum itch, remember the Old Soldier is no slouch when it comes to shooting far down range and getting the job done. These days my favorite highcountry rifle is a model 70 Winchester (old 30-06) that was wildcated into a .338/06 and the rifle with scope weighs under 7 pounds. Shooting 210 grain bullets, it is a bonified 350 yard elk killer. [/QUOTE]
