[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 53538, member: 34"] Not enough power from the 308 Win at 500 yards?????? 1200 to 1500 Foot pounds of energy left with a 308 Win using the 168 Gr or 175 Gr MK bullets. Plenty of killing power for an elk at only 500 yards. About 37 1/4 Min clicks of elevation and good bye Mr. Elk at 500 yards. Of course Butch likes those head shots. Have seen 243 Wins kill elk in Colorado quite nicely at 250 and 350 yards. Later DC [/QUOTE]
