[QUOTE="Boman, post: 1940506, member: 819"] I took one with a 30.06 at a ranged 542 yds. It worked well but I wouldnt do it again simply because there are better cartridges out there that will work better. After I took that bull, I bought a 340wby. If I were to use it for elk again I'd step down to a 165 gr Barnes TTSX and probably limit my range to 400ish. I shoot elk on public land and I cant afford to trail an elk for long distances. It would most likely be claimed by another hunter. I prefer to drop them in their tracks when things go right. But we all know they dont always go right. [/QUOTE]
