[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 282832, member: 2736"] Assuming you can get 2430 ft/sec using a 300gr bullet out of a 338 win mag, My numbers show you will have 1523 ft/lbs of energy @ 900 yrds and 255" of drop. But velocity will be 1512 ft/sec far below the minimum of most bullets performance velocity of 1800ft/sec. I would recommend that you limit the shots on ELK to 600 yrds with this combination. Just My 2 cents worth J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
