[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1761016, member: 2736"] Even though the 7mm cartridges will kill an Elk, those distances will test the shooter and the caliber. Also shooting across a canyon 900 to 1200 yards will also test the wind bucking ability of the 7s. If you want a dedicated Elk rifle for those distances I would recommend a larger caliber and a heavier bullet. The STW would be the least I would recommend and even then On Elk I would shorten the distance. Look at the energy @ 1200 yards for the 7mm s and I think you will see the reason for recommending something larger. Just My Opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
