[QUOTE="Ltbullken, post: 1551017, member: 80386"] There’s other threads on this. You can certainly take elk with a creed but I think you need to keep in mind it doesn’t hold magical killing powers over all ranges, conditions and game. I’ve shot an elk with a 260 w/ a 130TSX @ 125 paces and Scandinavians have taken moose with a 6.5 Swede for decades. But I believe the guidance is reasonable ranges, good shot presentation (double lung), and a worthy bullet (for me, it’s 130 gr + controlled expansion). One must always consider one’s shooting capabilities with the bullets limitations and use discretion on when to pull the trigger. [/QUOTE]
