We'll find out soon. It's not so much the recoil that bothers me. It's my support side shoulder so it's the weight that's the issue.

.300RUM. It will kill anything you point it at. With authority.

There's a good thread on RS using 6.5 on deer, elk, moose, bears too. Wrench and Form as well as others have great pics on the terminal...

Over at RS there's a thread on taking deer, elk, moose, and bears with a .223 using 77gr TMK. I posted their results and I find it...
