[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 174179, member: 4885"] We took 2 elk with the 408/338 (338 Allen Magnum) this year. 520yds and 508yds. We are using the 300gr Sierra Matchking they were not typical entrance/exit wounds, I believe the shot was too close/too high velocity for the SMK on both elk.. Neither elk moved more than 15ft. The entrance wound was about 3" on one elk and the entrance/exit was one hole where several vertabrae were removed on the other. What amazed me, was the lack of bloodshot meat for both animals, I suspect it was pure luck that we didn't mess up more meat at only 500yds with the 338 Allen Mag. AJ [/QUOTE]
