[QUOTE="Dosh, post: 1092587, member: 70363"] 16, .240 Wby on elk is perhaps a little shy of ethical. Sure there are those who will post claims of 20-30 years killing elk with light bullets, but consistent humane kills at distance may require a heavier caliber. Not knocking the .240 Wby since my next rifle will definitely be this caliber. I will use it on coyotes and javelina. I see several nice 7mm and up rifles on the local Backpage regularly. Purchasing a decent factory rifle shouldn't be very difficult and you will have something which will take an elk at a good distance. Good luck [/QUOTE]
