[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 1533653, member: 88320"] I’ve been apart of over 100 I would guess. I’ve been trigger man on 30ish, more cows than bulls. We used everything from a 25-06 to 338 RUM. The majority I have shot with with 300win mag with 180 Nosler Ballistic Tips. Have never lost an elk with rifles, have lost a couple with archery. I have learned if you want them stopped quickly there’s nothing better than 338’s with 225 and larger bullets. They anchor them real quick. But I have also learned I wouldn’t hesitate to hunt with the smaller cartridges either. Last 5 elk we killed have been with 6.5’s I will be leaving in a few days to take part of another, and we will be using a 6.5. [/QUOTE]
