[QUOTE="Harvey Durham, post: 1547244, member: 108572"] The 6.5 creedmoor is a great gun but in my opinion to small for elk. Yes a property placed round will get the job done but there’s so little tolorance there and the lack of energy at anything past 300 years is just not there, I own one but it will NEVER go elk hunting with me. Next, on a 2,000 SHOT, a .300 Norma mag .284 or a .338 Lapua AI nothing smaller. A .300 WSM is a great rifle and again I own one but just does not have the energy to reach past 1,000 yards for an ethical kill. I own all of these guns and many more. For serious long range one mile and beyond you need to look at a Chey-Teck.338 or .375. I hope this helps, Harvey [/QUOTE]
