[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 2314182, member: 61747"] As a non-reloader you might highly consider something you can get ammo for. Literally any 6.5-30 cal is more than fine for elk hunting at reasonable distances. I realize this is a long range hunting page, but since I don't follow the premise of LRH and factory ammo I will say you should just use any reasonable cartridge you can get ammo for. Plenty of elk have been taken with 30-06, 270, 280, etc. My person choice would be a 280AI if I wanted a dedicated elk rifle with close to magnum performance without heavy recoil. It's a nice blend of a lot of things. [/QUOTE]
