[QUOTE="TOM H, post: 395631, member: 306"] I've never taken an elk with VLD bullet so cann't help you there. I own afew elk rifles and the calibers you mention I also own but I don't consider them as "potentially take elk out to 600 yards or so." I want alittle more rifle if it was me I have bolt face open build a 30 cal mag rifle or 7Mag. I know this day and age we all want one rifle to fit all types of hunting. My first bull elk here in Co used a 7mag with 154gr Hornady bullet that was mid 70's that was the year we moved here. I later rebarrel that rifle to a 30-338mag. Since you already have the rifle did you hunt elk with it before or what caliber are you using now? [/QUOTE]
