[QUOTE="Will83, post: 2818760, member: 92233"] Never shot an elk, but killed plenty of whitetail with everything from a 22-250 to a 375 H&H. Bullet selection is key with a good shot. However, when conditions aren’t perfect and a slightly longer shot than normal presents itself, I have never felt that going a little bigger ever hurt my chances. Now when things aren’t perfect, I have at times wished to have brought along a larger caliber. I say 6.5 is probably good enough, but if elk are a rarity for you and it is costing you a significant amount of money for the trip, why not just bring enough gun to be comfortable with a less than perfect shot opportunity. A 6.5 PRC is great, but why not just bring enough gun? [/QUOTE]
