I shot that 250yd cow elk with the rebarreled 340 wby ( I went to a heavier barrel, 338WM and Mag-Na-Ported. )Also went with the then 185 XLC, also to reduce recoil. It was "perfection". I ended up giving that rifle to my Pastor down in Texas. Now, most folks see no difference between a 300 Mag/180 and a 338 Mag of some sort. I can't prove it, and as good as the 300 is, I feel the 338's + hit harder. It "might" just be me too, ha. But it makes me feel good down in my Soul when I use a Medium on elk!
