With the fabulous choices of calibers we have in today's world, using a 30/30 on elk suggests poor judgement. In this instance, poor judgement is verified by the decision to take a 200 yard shot.
Van Zwoll has been around long enough to understand Hagel's rule.
Jeez, where does all this stupid talk come from?
The thuty-thuty will work just fine on elk. It will kill just as effective as a 308 at that distance using a cup & core.
And who gives a rip what Haglel's rule is whatever that is.
