[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1550438, member: 8873"] Lefty, Not trying to start anything but in the original post (which I added here) he asks what “your” ultimate elk rifle would be, and folks stated what “their” rifle would be. You don’t have to agree, that’s perfectly fine. You being from Idaho, probably have a wealth of knowledge and experience on elk. The OP also stated that overkill is fine. Nobody will probably disagree with you that a large magnum isn’t needed to kill elk. I personally want the biggest and most capable chambering that I can shoot well. As in my choice, which is my current setup, a carry weight .338 RUM with highly capable bullets. I’m sorry you don’t like my choice but I would never want to take a chance, especially on the “shot of a lifetime on a trophy animal” as the OP stated. I tend to think worse case scenario, and would rather have it and not need it than the opposite. [/QUOTE]
