[QUOTE="PredatorSlayer, post: 1703458, member: 110866"] Sorry man, a larger caliber doesn’t make a poorly shot elk magically die. A gutshot elk is a gutshot elk whether its with a 243 or a 338. The furthest elk we chased was shot with a 338 wm “a little back” with a mono bullet. That sucker went for miles before we put him down for good with a well placed shot from a 270win. We hunt elk with 243’s and 6mm’s - we have always been very successful. Are you trying to imply that your 7mm bullets buck the wind better than a 6.5mm bullet would? Sounds like you need to read up on Ballistic Coefficients and run some numbers through an app or something. I am so sick of guys claiming you have to have a 300 mag or bigger to kill elk. You just have to not be a crappy shot and use a good bullet. [/QUOTE]
