[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 650884, member: 22335"] [b]Re: Low Recoil Rounds Suitable for Elk[/b] Tom, As mentioned already the 338 Federal would not be a bad choice at all; you're just limited in the rifles that are chambered in this caliber from the factory. A common alternate is to buy whatever caliber you want and then have a muzzle brake installed on the rifle. This will significantly decrease the felt recoil and you won't have to worry if the cartridge is "powerful enough" for an elk. It's the direction I would go rather than cutting back on the cartridge itself. [/QUOTE]
