[QUOTE="jlamb, post: 473991, member: 18855"] I shot an elk in October with my Lapua shooting a 250 grain Sierra GameKing. The shot was 1/4 faceing shot at about 250 yards. As soon as it hit the animal went down. After giving it a minute we walked up to it and it proceeded to get up and walk about 20 yards where it laid down. After dressing the animal we found the bullet in the off-side hide. It hit a rib and mushroomed perfectly, the animial absorbed 100% of the energy. I'd be a little afraid of using the SMK's on elk due to their endurance. As per deer the SMK would probably be ok. Jason [/QUOTE]
