[QUOTE="Hespco, post: 2193177, member: 109476"] I , just last week got in 200 Badlands Bulldozer ll , 6.5 125gr. BC 530. Worked up a load in my Savage 110 XP Storm 260 Rem. 3024 fps with 49.5grs Of Rel 26. Superb accuracy. Smacked my " little" target at 424 yds. Have never taken elk with the 6.5 Badlands , but have seen elk taken with them. One shot conclusive kills. Over the years I have taken , for sure , my fair share of elk. Most of which were taken with the 6.5 & the Barnes 120gr "X" at first. Then transitioned to the TSX, then the TTSX. All have worked. Did take a very mature elk in 2019 with the Hammer 121gr Hunter. Worked perfectly, complete penetration of both front shoulders. A DRT shot. I am a devoted advocate of the homogeneous copper bullet when it comes to elk. They all , copper mono's seem to work equally well on elk. They penetrate like a considerably heavier bullet than they are. So pick out the one you like & enjoy. [/QUOTE]
