[QUOTE="FIGJAM, post: 1551728, member: 71039"] The 6.5 is plenty for elk - you just can’t be stupid about the distances you shoot them at. The 1550 yard elk kill story is obviously BS, but it doesn’t take away from the fact that the 6.5CM is plenty of gun to lay the smack down on elk out to 500-600 yards. My earlier recommendation to the OP was to go with the 300 wm since he is cool with the recoil. I stand by that... Having said that I am going to leave my magnums in the safe this fall and hunt elk with my **** 260 just because of people who make comments like this, or maybe I will get really wild and buy some skinny jeans and take my son’s left handed creed, just so I can say I killed an elk with one and **** people off.
