No elk, but I have killed a lot of hogs with the 140 gr Partition load from Federal out of the 7-08. Well north of a hundred. I can remember one in particular that was about a 150 pound pig running dead away from me at night. Someone held the spotlight on him and I plugged it straight up in the classic Texas heart shot. Did not exit, but that pig did not take another step. Was a 125 or so yard shot. I have always been satisfied with the penetration of the partition on hogs out of the 7-08.
