[QUOTE="Ronald W Schaefer, post: 2684234, member: 109378"] If elk are your main quarry, run the heaviest bullet you can that'll still get you to 1800 at your planned max range. Play with some slower powders and loads, also maybe try some heavier bullets that are not hammers. Your goal is accuracy, and terminal performance, not necessarily married to a boutique bullet. If your goal is to get you there with a hammer, still play with the heavier bullets, sometimes you get a 200-fps surprise with a component or powder change. [/QUOTE]
