[QUOTE="dogz, post: 1932997, member: 5429"] Oy if one can't get it done with a 257 Wby then needs to take up another form of recreation.... Tons upon tons of elk have been taken with a 270 via the 130 @ 3000 give or take. If there's any much diff between that and a 120 out of the Big 25@ 3200 give or take I'll be darned if I can see it. Back when I used the Big 25 we had zero problem taking elk out via the 100 Horn SP at about 3500. One shot behind the front and down they went. Course we've been known to do in more than a few with our 22/250 and Swifts. Killing isn't rocket science, take out the lungs and they won't run. Pretty much like taking the battery out of a truck eh...:) [/QUOTE]
