[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1767830, member: 8873"] Shot my elk last year with a 236 Hammer Hunter from a .338 RUM at a mild 2950 fps. The shot was less than 100 yards, great penetration and terminal performance. My next favorite bullet is the 300 grain Sierra Matchking, it has been my go to bullet for elk and deer from a .338 for over 15 years. It has dropped everything with great penetration and terminal performance from real close to over 1400 yards. These (the .338’s) are the only MatchKings I feel confident in using/recommend for hunting. The last elk I killed with one dropped on the spot at 1006 yards with a slight quarter away shot. Found the bullet in the hide of the off side shoulder with a perfect mushroom. [/QUOTE]
