[QUOTE="Shootin4fun, post: 1297649, member: 28741"] LoL, I jumped on this thread because I met a guy from Colo yesterday who was saying a 270 win was very marginal for elk, and that he only shoots them with his 300 Wby because they're so tough. Then I see people on the 6.5 Grendel site showing pics of an elk they shot at under 200 yards with one of those. Holy smokes, what an extreme spread! Anyway, I've been planning on using my 270 or more likely 7RM for elk. I shoot mostly TTSX because at speed they have never failed me. So guys, if I want to go to 600 with a 7mm TTSX, should I be looking at heavier than a 145gr LRX @3150fps for shooting through tough spots like shoulders? I think longer shots would be better with a heavier VLD or something else that expands at lower velocities. [/QUOTE]
