[QUOTE="Kennibear, post: 948179, member: 51650"] Just to bolster the 200gr side... Using Berger's numbers from 1st Edition a 30/06 tosses a 210gr VLD 308 at a max of 2588 fps. That seems a little low but we'll use it. It carries 1810fps to 625 yards where it develops 1528 ftlbs of energy. Most sources list 1500 ftlbs as minimum for elk. So I would say a 210 Berger VLD 308 is good to go for the 30/06 to beyond 600 yards. Above data generated with the G7 BC. KB [/QUOTE]
