[QUOTE="FIGJAM, post: 1552860, member: 71039"] Amen to that. I bought and hunted with the 300 rum for a few years. I realized that it didn't kill them any deader than my 7RM did, so I justified the purchase of another rifle and have been hunting with a 270 wsm the last couple years with great success. I have noticed ZERO difference in its ability to kill an elk. All have been dead within a couple steps of where they were shot. Distances are usually between 300 and 600 yards. I have never been opposed to taking a longer shot and feel like I have the skill set to do so, but that is where they elk presented themselves to me - and there is no way I am going to hike backwards just so I can take a 1000 yard shot...lol.
