[QUOTE="Mountain Sloth, post: 3028885, member: 102638"] please tell me you are showing up to elk camp with a 22-250… to be clear I’m not advocating for using anything less than the right tool for the job. If the 22-250 is your huckleberry use it. But for me an elk rifle, and being he’s already got a deer rifle in the 6.5cm, starts at 270 win and you can’t kill them to dead. But I understand people have different recoil tolerance and rifle fit. The 300 prc or 7prc would make fine additions, and with a brake or can would be easily shootable. A braked 300 win with 200 grain bullets is something I’d let my 13 year old daughter shoot. But it’s your tag and your money and your adventure take what risks you want 🤘🏻 [/QUOTE]
