[QUOTE="C-130 Dude, post: 2830224, member: 122991"] 900 yds on elk? No way you will have enough velocity or energy, no matter what. Think, "clean and ethical kill". BTW, the simple fact is that a 30.06 case capacity is larger. It will always out perform a 308. If you need/want to take a longer shot, change cartridge. There are many better for this long shot. The 308 is range limited. Usually good for up to 500 yds, maybe 600 yds - depending on the game involved. Just in case your wondering, the 308 is my favorite cartridge. I've been loading it for over 45 years. But I know it's limitations well. In the end, it your money and time. Good luck. Stay safe and have fun. [/QUOTE]
