[QUOTE="PredatorSlayer, post: 1777944, member: 110866"] Spoken like somebody who doesnt do a lot of elk hunting....or, the op could go buy him something in the 6.5 or 7mm flavor that is fun to shoot and he can shoot a lot to get comfortable with. You don’t need a cannon to kill elk. I love the out of staters who roll into my state for their first elk hunt sporting the brand new 338 Rum that they haven’t spent much time shooting. They die when I tell them I am shooting a 25-06 or 270win...because as a local I should know elk can’t be killed with such a small caliber :rolleyes:. Most people who grow up in elk country shoot a humble 243, 270 win, or 30-06. A lot of them are shooting cheap factory soft point ammo. They know elk aren’t bullet proof... [/QUOTE]
