[QUOTE="Mark Williams, post: 1546651, member: 103729"] 6.5 does not have the energy to be a good Elk cartridge. IMO its barely a deer cartridge. I own 2 of them. I have seen 140 gr berger blow up on the shoulder of a buck and not penetrate into either lung. I know elk have been killed with it and the right bullet. Would never recommend an angling shot or a shoulder shot with it. For Elk its name should be changed to the 6.5 NEEDMOOR! [/QUOTE]
