[QUOTE="wilkup, post: 1235034, member: 74276"] I think it depends on what game you're targeting. In my experience, elk are toughest to kill, but bears can be tricky too, even though they're much easier to knock down. If black bear are on your list of targeted animals, I believe bigger diameters are better than high energy on target because they have so much fur and getting decent blood trails depends largely on the size of the holes you're punching in them. For me, I've decided on a fast 30 as my optimum combo for hunting near and far with enough size of energy, but sometimes I still grab the little 44 mag saddle gun because it's light and easy to bring on the trail.
