[QUOTE="ATH, post: 558302, member: 1656"] I'd go with one of the 30 caliber magnums (300WM, 300WSM, etc) as I don't like brakes. If you don't mind brakes or the cost, one of the 338s will hit harder. Elk are tough animals. Personally, I'm leery of 7mms on them. I don't begrudge those that use them at all. You simply need to personally trust whatever you use, and I don't trust the smaller calibers after watch elk absorb multiple 30cal bullets through the vitals with no visible reaction until they fall over dead.
