[QUOTE="orifdoc, post: 2483375, member: 115070"] I love my .257 bee and wouldn’t hesitate to shoot an elk with it out to 500 yards. Mine likes TTSX. They aren’t really in the weight class of most elk bullets but the screaming velocity makes up much of the difference. I did have one split an antelope cape from shoulder to jaw once when I had to finish off a speed goat at 50 yards that didn’t want to die. This is the only rifle I use routinely for hunting that causes me to worry just the slightest bit about over-velocity with monolithics. When we finally get the right barrels, reamers, and heavy bullets figured out it will be an absolute beast. Don’t buy a weatherby if you don’t reload though. [/QUOTE]
