[QUOTE="lsm62, post: 577789, member: 26748"] i took an elk at 250y with an AR-10 last year and was successful. My brother-in-law is a butcher and cut it up for me. said the bullet did a perfect job but at a little further off (4-500y) it might have gone different. i shot a 185 berger vld at 2400fps and hit the shoulder aria.i missed the bone but it wasn't the best shot. when using a smaller or slower cartridge shot placement becomes very critical. for an elk i would consider stepping up to a mag or larger caliber for the longer shots.
