[QUOTE="lloydsmale, post: 810470, member: 41442"] me id opt for the 300 if you shoot it well. But as to the 308 theres no need for premium bullets or even 180s and heavier. A good cup and core 150 or 165 will harvest any elk at reasonable ranges. I havent shot an elk with one but have put many deer and some black bear and pigs with 150 powerpoints out of a 308 and never found them lacking. An elk isnt any harder to kill then a big hog or black bear. If you feel the need for 180s its probably time to step up to a bigger gun. [/QUOTE]
