[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 206535, member: 505"] You mentioned elk. You need to get an elk rifle which is a big 338. All the above mentioned are really good ones. An old timer I talked to several times at the shot show about long range elk talked me into the 340 wby many years ago. Then he improved the 338-378. He was from Montana and spent his lifetime hunting the west and writing about it. So have I. He had a good book called "Hell, I Was There". People who have seen hundreds of animals downed know what their talking about. The smaller calibers will kill them with a well placed shot, but why limit yourself. If you want a long range elk rifle then get the best. Your shot in the field at long range may not be just perfect. I will always go deer hunting with an elk rifle, but you will never see me elk hunting with a deer rifle. Always remember that. [/QUOTE]
