[QUOTE="338RUM, post: 461623, member: 30235"] I do own all of the above stated calibers and was leaning to the 338 RUM just because it is a gun I have complete confidence in, I never really thought of taking an extra and am glad for the input. This will be my first elk hunt and the guy I have been talking to is my future father in law so I don't think he is leading me astray, I really am hesitant to take my 30-06 as it is a 1955 Model 70 Featherweight and I would be devastated if it was marred up as it was a gift from a now deceased friend of mine. I will probably go with the 338 RUM and the 270 WSM as the 270 WSM does out preform my 300 WSM as far as groups are concerned. What is a good bonded bullet in 270 cal as I really want to make sure it is not going to blow up on a bone and slowly kill a majestic animal by infection... [/QUOTE]
