[QUOTE="RevJim, post: 1252813, member: 86754"] I like to hold really tight into the shoulder, if not right on it. I've only taken 3 cow elk, but lots of elk size Plains Game. On the Plains game, I only used Barnes 250/200X in a 35 Whelan AI, the 180XBT in 300 winmags, 210 XBT in 338 win and 340W, and the old 270 Failsafe in the 375. On the elk , my first was with a 30-06/180 Light Mag load, then a 375/300 sierra and last one was with the 338 win/185XLC. I like to break them down, preferably taking out at least one shoulder and the heart. But, sometimes the 'wind don't blow, the sun don't shine and the grass don't grow"...then I shoot all the wiggle out of them! Happy Thanksgiving guys! [/QUOTE]
