[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 319193, member: 13632"] A good share of first time hunters here shoot there first elk with a 243 sized rifle, if your deer hunting here your also elk hunting. I can't see taking my daughter hunting when she's 12 yrs old and making her shoot anything bigger, using a bigger gun than you can handle wounds more game than shooting a seemingly light cal. that you can effectively shoot. If you can't kill an elk with a 243 in it's usable range then you won't fair any better if your packing a ground howitzer. Killing elk at longer distance obviously requires heavier equipment to retain bullet speed and momentum but to kill and elk at normal range takes nothing special. Just kinda my 2 cents, maybe I'm up to a dollar now:D [/QUOTE]
