[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 319078, member: 11717"] Most of putting down an elk is the way you do it. I know a guy who has shot 4 bulls with a 243 and none of them went far. You will hear a lot of different experiences and results when it comes to killing elk. If you dont spook them and get on a cow call right away, 9 times out of 10 they wont go anywhere. Even if you do spook them, if you get on the cow call you can usually settle them right down and even bring them back. WhenI I hunt elk I always have a cow call. I use the mouth reed type so both hands are free -MR BTW, I am not endorsing a 243 for elk, but I may be usign a 25-06 this year, depending on how quick I can get my 300 RUM up. [/QUOTE]
