[QUOTE="GERDES G, post: 1552609, member: 107245"] I just got my 28 Nosler out of the shop and it shoot awesome. I was back in Colorado in 2017 and got an elk at 469 and an antelope at 275 with my 7mm RUM. I use the 150gr Nosler E-Tip. I shot both prone with a radial brake. I have never got the blow back (buck fever going on probably) on any kill with my RUM at a prone shot. I have got it shooting targets in my bavk yard. You need to shoot what ever is confortable to you. I am no fan of the 6.5 but they kill elk. The 270 dpes as well as the 243. It all depends on how confident you are with your abilities. I always caught crap from the people I hunted around/with for only using a 7mm cal. But there were years I came back to camp with dead animal. Some years when a few people got lucky I had better shot placment and a further distance. But DO listen to these people on here! They are full of very useful information! Good luck in utah! What part are you moving to? [/QUOTE]
