[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 2671325, member: 10429"] Here is what I agree with. Probably we all can shoot a lighter less recoiling round much better and handle it much better than say a larger high recoiling magnum and we all know when you talk around elk circles the CM had no love. For me I say take what you feel comfortable with each man to his own. If you know you limitation for you bullet/velocity/ftlbs of energy and you are comfortable with doing so let her rip. You’re always going to have some critics of what you use. Looks like a really nice elk. Congratulations on the kill. As for me I would have did the same. I have a CM I will be working up a 142ABLR for. Some day I may find myself in the same spot with a large deer or elk at some longer range that I would prefer but I will be making the same decision. Steady on the rest and put the bullet in the crease. I do have all other sorts of guns to use but next year the CM will be going out to do the work. This year it was the 7mm-08. At some point I’ll circle back to the 300RUM. [/QUOTE]
