I don’t think anyone on here would argue that a 338 win mag isn’t an elk rifle.

Why decrease your chance of success and increase your chance of wounding an animal. Can and should aren’t the same.

Sure, if he’s going “elk hunting” to shoot ballistic gell. In how many of those videos were they shooting through 3/8” of bull elk hide...

IMO you are making a mistake taking a 6mm on an elk hunt. Of course it will kill an elk but that's not the point. It is marginal at best...

You need to look at the gel test on YouTube 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 them smaller bullets are hitting harder. 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣. Kinetic energy no longer exists...

Sounds to me like you have a great excuse to add another tool to your gun cabinet. Elk shots tend to be longer than most people are used...

Don't ever recommend a light target bullet ELDM with a light copper jacketed bullet to take an Elk.

Heck ya that .041 makes a huge difference plus the extra 70-80gr of bullet weight and 2.5x the energy.

After watching the elk I've killed suck up multiple hits in the boiler room from 30cal 200gr Accubonds travelling over 3000fps at the...

But that’s not the end of the story. A “DRT” comes from compromising the CNS, not from the caliber of the bullet. A spinal or head shot...

I've shot them with a 243 ackley clear up to a 338 rum. I have plenty of experience. I didn’t say they won’t work. I’m saying they...

How many have you shot with a 6 or 6.5? I’m not recommending those, but how do you say they won’t work and say that you have no...

I'd stick with the 22/250. It's tried and true and you've had positive experiences with it. Ammo is very accessible and reasonable...

If you zero a Berger 80.5FB@3260fps (what I run mine at with a 22" barrel) at 200yrds the drop would be basically the same...but you...

Easy button would be 22-250 1 in 8 or 1 in 7 and use current dies and brass.
