[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 2674756, member: 87243"] My wife got an elk down with the 170 Cayuga, starting at 2835 fps from a 20" 7 Sherman max. 430 yards, impact velocity was around 2430 fps. She made an excellent double lung hit with the typical Wyoming breeze, 20-30mph with the little crystal snowflakes stinging her in the face as she layed prone in the snow. Complete pass through, about a 50 cent sized exit, cow turned and ran about 75 yards, leaving a fantastic blood trail, and tumbled down against some trees. Photo's tell the rest!
