[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 613041, member: 8873"] Good post, I love this site. About the only one I visit, not just due to time. Lots of good folks with lots of experience. I agree with you on the above. With the very (very) limited experience I have with elk I know that any caliber with a well consructed-well placed bullet will kill. But I have a tendency to be one of those "Go big or go home" type of guys, and after seeing what an elk can take and having the trophy deer of my life stolen on public land. I want to knock the living crap out of pretty much everything I hunt now. For me to listen to guys telling hunters not to use a rifle capable of putting down an elephant at 1000 yards and then watching them drive away in $50,000 truck that takes them to the office and back seems hypocritical. Or somebody asking my buddy Keith why he wants to be able to benchpress over 600 pounds. This is what I told my wife several years ago when I volunteered for my second deployment to Iraq. She supported me but asked "Why would anybody WANT to do that?" and I replied "Honey, don't ever ask a man why he does the things he does...because he doesn't even know." [/QUOTE]
