[QUOTE="shirasbc, post: 1942740, member: 114845"] I disagree with those that say a 6.5 is not enough for elk. I have been an elk outfitter in BC for >10 years and have killed a bunch myself. I now only carry a 6.5 with me - shooting 120 grain barnes TTX bullets. I am a firm believer that the low recoil makes a person a much better and consistent shooter. I had clients that were supposed to be great shooters carry 7mm 300 and 340 magnums and had to chase wounded elk all over the mountains. I also believe that all bullets are not created equal when it comes to the damage they do internally and have been very happy with the barnes. [/QUOTE]
