[QUOTE="Dirtrax, post: 2667838, member: 78945"] FYI - I took a very large spike elk 30 minutes after shooting light on opening day with my 450 BM recently. I didn’t use my CE bullets simply because I didn’t have the time to mess with them (elderly dad moved in). The load is 41.3grs H-110 over a Hornady 250 FTX. Rifle is an AR-15 with a 20” bbl. One shot, one step, and a straight legged tip-over. The jacket was lodged in the liver and the core was found on the far side under the hide. Range was 35 yards thanks to my Hoochie Mama. The lack of a pass through makes think bullet mass is key on large critters even though the results were great. Food for thought. [/QUOTE]
