[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1468600, member: 7999"] Everybody knows that elk cartridges start with a 3 and use at least 70g of powder. In all seriousness, I do believe there is no replacement for displacement. I also am much less afraid of small cartridges than I once was. Regardless of what cartridge you are using I think bullet choice is more important than anything else. An elk bullet must be capable of getting through the shoulder of an elk. They are not always broadside. An elk bullet must be able to handle the heavy muscle and bone whether or not the vel is high or low. Your creed is capable of handling elk out to your started yardage. A bullet like our 130g Sledge Hammer and you will be fine. Steve [/QUOTE]
