[QUOTE="Longtooth32, post: 1481367, member: 89326"] If you are going to spend the money for a hunt...especially for an Elk hunt...spend the money for a bonded bullet...I hit my 6x6 bull Elk at 285 yrds, muzzle velocity for my 170gr, 270 bullet was 3225fps. Berger EOL. The bull never took a step... I lost about a quarter of the meat to "bloodshot"... How far are you going (or want to) shoot? Minimum expansion FPS/distance ? If you have a really fast twist...get some of the Hammer monolithic bullets...they will expand at 1800fps...and hold together at faster speeds... [/QUOTE]
