[QUOTE="Tidus56, post: 1610753, member: 104495"] I have a Bergara Ridge and its a great rifle. I bought it in 6.5 Creed and like mentioned above you can kill elk no problem, but ideal I would say no. I have also shot the HMR Bergara and really liked it for a varmint or bench gun. I like the magazine to be flush with the rifle stock for hunting rifles. If you're looking for an elk hunting rifle I would suggest something with more downrange energy than a .308 win or a 6.5 Creedmoor. There are some cartridges in .284 that would work, a few .264 cartridges and plenty of .308 cartridges that would work. I prefer the .284 chamberings and use either a 28 Nosler or a 280 AI for elk. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
