[QUOTE="sjb8215, post: 1985636, member: 72084"] The 7-08 is a fine medium to large game rifle at reasonable distances, out to 500 yds. Many fine factory loads are available and the the caliber won't set you back big bucks to buy or reload ammo. For shooters with smaller frames and new to the shooting sports it is a fine choice for deer/elk. I would recommend a load with a premium bullet for Elk at all ranges. Look for factory ammunition from Nosler, Barnes, Hornady. Bullet types Nosler partition, Accubond. Barnes TSX, TTSX and LRX. Hornday GMX, Interbond and ELD-X. Bullet weight 120-162 gr. Any of these will get the job done on a tough large animal such as elk. [/QUOTE]
