[QUOTE="OneTruthBeliever, post: 2343509, member: 120793"] The cartridge will allow you to hunt about anything in North America - except maybe Bison. So, to me, here's the real focus: the lighter rifles are handy for mountain hunting, but the pencil barrel rifles can be finicky re ammo they like. I have the Mtn Ascent in .280 A.I. & it's a tack driver with a 160gr Nosler partition, but we couldn't ever get the dope right with a 150gr bullet; it was all over the place. So, my 2 cents is to be more concerned with getting the load right on any lightweight mountain rifle. Mine has served me well on Elk, Sheep, & Whitetails. I did take a Bison with mine, but I really needed more punch. Hope this helps you. [/QUOTE]
