[QUOTE="MarshMello, post: 1683383, member: 67621"] I went through the same thought process primarily hunting Midwest whitetail and desiring the capacity to get out West at extended ranges for deer and speedgoats well as elk. I settled on a 6.5 PRC. I handload and just as easily could have gone with the SAUM. IMO it's not an extended long range elk gun but will do the job well at moderate ranges with tolerable recoil and that was my compromise, wanting the one gun for as many jobs as I can task it with and tolerable recoil. Really good deer rifle out to 600+. For elk, my target is 400 yards and under. That's subjective but what I came to terms with and landed on. [/QUOTE]
