[QUOTE="Dave in Idaho, post: 151313, member: 1158"] I have heard good things about the SST's on deer sized game. I don't know about elk. I have used a Sierra 140gr SP for elk in the past and it worked well. I love my 6.5mm BUT I treat a shot on elk with the 6.5mm bullet just like a archery shot. I try for a spot behind the shoulder and avoid heavy bone. This is contrary to my deer which I try to break some heavy bone. I admit my elk experience is limited. But I prefer a 7mm or .30 cal bullet for elk. One man's opinion. Dave [/QUOTE]
