[QUOTE="SansSouci, post: 1118095, member: 84520"] I can't think of a big game cartridge that ain't "elk worthy" as long as you can put a bullet where it's gotta go. Nothing living remains in that condition for long sans its heart/lungs. Not all the long ago the new world record Yukon moose, largest of the 3 North American species, was killed with a .303 British. It ain't what you're shooting. It's all about how well you can shoot what you're shooting. Ask me & I'd go with the .280 Rem as the single best cartridge for all North American big game. The .308 Win will git er dun, too, in a short action. I've shot more than a few big rifles. They have two characteristics that don't work for me: they're heavy, and they kick the heck outta me. If I'm gonna get beat up, I wanna get paid for it. [/QUOTE]
