[QUOTE="ebby, post: 2296916, member: 35195"] Headed to NM next week for my son's elk hunt. He's likely going to use my 28 Nos but I just got a new APR 6.5 prc and had some factory nosler ammo that I was using for barrel break in. Of course it shoots them into tiny holes and I went ahead and dialed it in out to 600. They are going 2925fps from my setup currently. Would anyone hesitate to use this on an elk hunt? I've used a 6.5 creed at much slower velocity with the 143 eldx in africa on Kudu, Eland, and Nyala and it worked great but I know how tough elk are. The ABLR is fairly soft too. The reason I'm asking is that the 6.5 is a more compact and lighter weight rifle that might be better to tote around. Thanks guys! Lee [/QUOTE]
