[QUOTE="Ace Quackhunter, post: 1844257, member: 112792"] The fact that you hunt deer out to 300 yards in your home state, sounds like you may have what you need already. But don't let me talk you out of a custom or semi custom build, I have a 338 mag that will be finished soon and I want to see if will shoot some 225 grain pills that I have whole box of. Most state's start at a 243 for elk, so anything up from that should get the job done if you do your part. I have a passion for 6.5 cal. and my favorite is a 264 mag. with 160 grain Matrix for elk my long shot to date is a little over 225 yards. Take some time to find out what caliber and distance you are confident with and work from there, a double lung shot will work ever time. Oh if you get an opportunity try not shoot across canyon, you find out why when you spend the rest of the day trying to hike around only to get there and sunset and get to spent the night on the ground next to your trophy.
