[QUOTE="rumshooter, post: 2466751, member: 21407"] I would like to encourage you to NOT use that small of caliber on elk. Over the last thirty some years, I've killed or been in on many elk harvests. These are a big TOUGH animal and I "Personally" believe that .270 is the minimum bullet diameter that should be allowed, although the DOW says a .243 is the minimum. I would hate to see you loose an elk, on a hunt that takes so much money and effort, due to being under gunned. granted, one can kill an elk with a .22 if you shoot it in the head, but most times you won't have a rest or an ideal situation. Please consider this. [/QUOTE]
