[QUOTE="Barehandlineman11, post: 2837529, member: 111144"] I got a buddy that tracks wounded animals in arizona with hounds. He tracks a few hundred a year. Number one cartridge? 7mm. Not saying a 7mm 6.5 or 6mm wont kill a elk. Heck i bet Ive killed 15 as a kid with a 25/06. Shot placement is critical. But your a fool if you hunted enough elk to say you can guarantee a perfect shot every time thats why bigger makes things nice. I might be different but i can shoot my lapua just as good as a creedmoor. Elk are tough I personally shoot them in the shoulder first shot it demobilizes them. Ive seen many elk make it a long ways without vitals. [/QUOTE]
