[QUOTE="winmag, post: 665973, member: 22166"] 338-06 will run within 200 fps of a 338Win Mag with a 225 gr bullet.I really thought hard about that one. A square, Ackley Improved, whatever, its a badass cartrige! The RUM is in a whole different league tho. By the way there's nothin wrong with the good ol 270. That is my personal minimum for Elk, & I've seen a bunch of Elk fall to them. I have a bunch of cousins who hunt exclusively with 270's, & do well with them. Now I'm not saying smaller cartriges/calibers won't work. I've seen them work on Elk. But I've also seen Elk soak up a lot of lead, with good shot placement, from a lot bigger guns & keep going for a surprisingly long way before expiring. That is why my personal minimum is a 270. It just works. From a 140 Accubond on the light side, to the heavy 160 partition, they kill Elk. [/QUOTE]
