[QUOTE="waylow, post: 734392, member: 54047"] You ask why I think I need a 33 cal to kill Elk? The friend that offered to take me on my first Elk hunt told me he used 30 cal for years but thinks his 338 rum is alot better. My shooting skill comes from 40 years as a varmint hunter with my 223 s I'm good on small targets to 300 yards and with my 243 I do ok at 400 or so. I read alot and try to learn all I can before I put a gun in my safe to avoid having to resale at a loss. I have a good place to shoot out to 1000 yards and will put in the time to know what my limits are. I think if I go with a rifle in the 10 to 13 pound range with a break I should be ok with recoil.
