[QUOTE="Elk Hunter 338, post: 595823, member: 23509"] True that sp6x6, I went to a bigger caliber after a few elk didn't go down on the first shot with a 7mm with 175 gr nosler partition, as for berger's and match kings, I've seen first hand that they were definitely not made for close range hunting, I would never recommend them for some one wanting an all around hunting rifle that he or she maybe was gonna shoot a long shot every once and a while, I would say use the nosler accubond, hornady interbond, swift scirocco, just to name a few. And I would also say shoot the biggest caliber you are comfortable and accurate with and run with it and shoot a well constructed HUNTING bullet and don't look back, this is just my opinion and not in any way the only way it has to be, i am sure other guys on here have had different results wich is the way it is, this is just my 2 cents. Shoot a good bullet and put it through both shoulders and you won't be tracking them. Good luck [/QUOTE]
