[QUOTE="manitou, post: 1553088, member: 105280"] I will stick with .280 Rem rifles and my handloaded 140 gr. Accubonds at 3040 fps. Extremely accurate and I am very comfortable with them out to my max ranges I will shoot game... 600 yds. I see no reason to go bigger unless I decide on a grizz hunt some day. I am kind of fond of my 7mm08s too and wouldn't hesitate to hunt elk at reasonable ranges with them either, although I would prefer my .280s for elk. I used to be a magnum guy, but over time have realized they aren't necessary for my shooting distances at game. Don't need the extra recoil, blast or powder usage. I enjoy the heck out of shooting on my range and am confident in what I shoot. [/QUOTE]
