[QUOTE="25elk, post: 726867, member: 58548"] IMHO you are better off staying with the 130 gr loads especially if you are using factory ammo. I discovered that I became a better marksman when I settled on one bullet weight and was then able to concentrate on long range bullet performance as the main criteria in deciding what rounds to load. For example, I always carried a few rounds of Remington bronze points for those 400 yard shots at elk or mule deer because their penetration at that range was excellent. At 150 yards or less, where most elk are shot, those rounds go straight through so a Silvertip or something similar is called for. Good advice from "bigngreen". Back when I seriously hunted coyotes, a prime high country pelt with just one hole in it brought $200, but you couldn't hardly give one away that had been blown apart. [/QUOTE]
