[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 171118, member: 4885"] James, good points on the 338RUM/Edge. It is a lot of rifle for the money. You are right of course, it doesn't take that much to kill an elk. But at long range 'perfect' bullet placement is harder. If I miss the breadbox and hit the shoulder of an elk at 1000yds, I want to break him down. You aren't going to do that with a lot of lesser cartridges. At 1000yds, the 338AM has more energy than a 300Win mag does at 150yds. As far as knocking them down, if a 300WinMag will do it at 150yds, a 338AM will do it at 1000yds. AJ [/QUOTE]
