[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 2997, member: 8947"] I shoot a 300Wby and would not hesitate to take a poke at a mulie within the range of my Leica 800. Never hunted elk so can't say. For LR hunting, bigger is better so consider the Wby as a min. and go from there. However, you don't need that much gun for match shooting. Refer to an excellent article on cartridges for LR hunting by Dan Lilja on his website. Pretty much covers everything you need to know. Also refer to the 300tomahawk and RUM projects posted on this forum. There will always be compromises and if I had to, I would rather compromise on paper instead of hide. Good luck... Jerry [/QUOTE]
