[QUOTE="Short Case, post: 2534055, member: 55547"] I have only shot 15 Elks all kills one shot all have been shot with 6.5 140 ga. to 160 ga. bullets, 14 of them drop on the spot or very few steps on 1 ran about 90 yards. It's all about bullet placement if it's 15 mph wind I will not take the shot. The only reason I'm wanting a heaver bullet is to buck the wind and a little harder hit. I'm shooting my 160 gr. at 3065 fps. at that speed the bullet hit him before he hears the sound. When I built this rifle I went to 7.5 twist and as so far it has shot great. This rifle free bore is .233 and I'm shooting it at .025 off the lance. My rifle is a 6.5/300 Norma Imp. I just call it a 26 Nosler. [/QUOTE]
