[QUOTE="davewilson, post: 257623, member: 4491"] buckbrush said, After thinking about this for a while, and thanks to the great advice I've received, I am thinking about rebarreling an old Model 70 7 REM mag my dad gave me years ago. this would be perfect. a gun you don't use that needs rebarreled. if you want to take elk at 6-700, my vote goes to the 338 but the others will work also. any of the cartridges mentioned will work great. my advice would be to get a brake. if you don't like brakes, my suggestion would be a 338 Win Mag shooting a Barnes 210 TTXS. If you can't kill an elk with a 338 Win Mag, a bigger cartridge won't help. let us know what/how you make out. [/QUOTE]
