[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 316510, member: 1007"] Many may argue with me on this but if all I were going to shoot was 400 yards (even out to 500 yards) I personaly would not hesitate to harvest an elk with my 308. 200 SGK in boiler, that would be all she wrote. Period! Youre looking at over 1500 pounds and over 1800 FPS at 525 yards with the 200 SGK at 2500 FPS. I have ran the 200's over 2600 but the accuracy is at 2500 in my stick. IMHO I would rather use a bigger rifle for 400 yard elk hunting but I like yourself dont like recoil. When this is an issue, it is better to use what is comfortable than what sounds better. Just my thoughts. [/QUOTE]
