[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1316935, member: 8873"] +1 on this, but I'm no expert having only killed a handful of elk. Made a perfect hit (on this spot) at a little over 1,000 yards and dropped him with a single 300 grain SMK out of my .338 Edge. This is the only elk I've ever seen DRT and never twitch a muscle. Again, I'm no expert. Then last year this aim point saved my butt when I fudged my windage and hit back of ribs, 800+ yards with a 415 grain Cutting Edge MTH from my .408 Cheytac. If intended shot placement was any further back I'd of had a gut shot bull across a very steep and heavily timbered valley. This season (Lord, family and military willing I get to go) I hope to have a big .375 of sort with either CEB Lazers or Chinchagas. No you don't need the power, but it sure doesn't hurt. That and the wind deflection being half what most "normal" cartridges will do sure puts a man's mind at ease, especially if hunting solo. [/QUOTE]
