[QUOTE="Caveman0101, post: 1514497, member: 10852"] I only post the numbers to illustrate the success we've had with the ABLR in multiple weights and different calibers at varying ranges. I only started keeping up with it when my sons hit hunting age and we started shooting the ABLR. On second thought, it is a pretty big deal to take 3 elk in one day on public land DIY. Furthermore for someone who is looking for a do it all rifle, once you get to or above the .264 caliber, bullet selection and placement (ability) are the most important factors in the consistently taking game, especially elk. We actually shot 4 elk yesterday, another hunter wounded a cow and we finished it off for him as he lost sight of it over the hill. He guessed the range, held high, and broke the elk's leg at the first joint. Right or wrong I was not letting that animal limp away and suffer. It did not matter what caliber or bullet that guy was shooting he freehanded a guessed range and made a terrible shot. You can't fix stupid. [/QUOTE]
