[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 2020175, member: 13632"] Dropping weight in a mono and running them faster is what looses elk, I drank that dumb Koolaid too many years, used to run Barnes light and hard in big guns and they had to hit them multiple time often, got of that train and went heavy for cal cup and core, instant problem solved drop way down on cartridge size with better results. Tested MANY monos over the years because I still like some aspects of them BUT until shooting the Hammers never got the terminal performance of the cup and core which is what matters, I still shoot them as heavy as I can cause speed don't kill squat consistently and over wide ranges especially on elk.
