[QUOTE="Idaho Lefty, post: 2593726, member: 104437"] I'm Loving, my New 6.5 Creed, Tikka L-H, SS, 24" barrel with, almost NO Recoil using, the 120- 123 grain Bullets and it's, a "Thumper" with, Hornady 143 gr. ELD-X's and a full Charge of, StaBall 65 Powder at, over 2,750 FPS. It's my New, Light weight, Deer / Antelope and "Steel Fun", Rifle that, I would feel "comfortable" shooting, out to 400 - 450 Yards on, Elk. YES, I've "Heard that, they will Kill an Elk a Bit, further than that, But, I like being, a bit "conservative", on those, big Wonderful, animals. My grandson "Popped", a Nice fat, 3X4 Idaho Muley at, 268 yds, One Shot, One Hop, DRT with, a .243 Win and an 87 gr., Berger @ 3,000 FPS. But the .243 Win. is not, a "real Good", Elk Cartridge ( IMO ), So, we're getting him, a 6.5 Creed, too ! IT will be, "Braked" Til',.. he's older. [/QUOTE]
