[QUOTE="snox801, post: 2456925, member: 54383"] I’ll play the devils advocate here. What would happen if that buddy hit the shoulder socket of even shoulder of that elk. At that distance that would have been a terrible wound on that animal but you would never find it. Let be real anyone who has shot that distance at altitude, which usually means your in the mountains, which then means winds do weird things. Even with a big 30 cal I know I could make the shot but to know it would go perfect in that high shoulder shot placement is not something I’d try. I assume high shoulder since you said it went right down. Behind shoulder at that speed it would run. That being said I don’t judge other ethics because I’m sure someone would find something wrong with what I do. I mainly want people reading these think that it’s a great round and they should try at that distance because they heard someone did it. [/QUOTE]
