[QUOTE="Hoss50, post: 1739292, member: 109801"] Either will work. I have 1st hand seen or taken a cow elk with 115gr HVLD from a 257 weatherby, and 2 mule deer and 2 cow elk with 135gr Classic hunters from a 6.5x55. I also saw the aftermath of 168gr HVLD from a 300 win mag on a cow elk. Every shot that was placed correctly was a kill shot. If you are chasing bulls and plan to shoot shoulders though get a tougher bullet. Bergers fragment when the get inside. For me its boiler room shots only for Bergers. Put them in the boiler room and they get it done in my experience. [/QUOTE]
