[QUOTE="DUKFVR, post: 650207, member: 20264"] I really APPRECIATE all the feedback & help. I am an elk newbie. This feedback helps on my thoughts. I am gonna have to try some of the Federal loads with the 180 gr TSX. I got this rifle for my 25th wedding anniversary & it has been a Great shooter. The 165's were the 1st loads I shot out of it & it is under MOA out to 300 yards with these Barnes vortex loads. I have killed several muleys,but only 1 elk & it was a cow. Shot it with a 308 2 years ago. I was using the 180 gr MRX Barnes bullet & it did hammer her. Having not elk hunted or should I say hunted where there were many elk never got a chance on a legal bull. I have gotten pulled this year for a tag in a great area for bulls. Just want to make sure the 165's were heavy enough for a bull if I do my part. I have seen some boxes of the Federal loads for the 300 wsm with the 180 gr MRX still on shelves. I may try a box of these & see how they shoot in my gun. THANKS Again for all the thoughts & opinions. [/QUOTE]
