Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting 6.5x55 SE For Elk ?

I shot a cow Elk last fall with my Swede. 140 Gr Hornady at 2650mv. One shot thru lungs at 50 yards, worked perfect. Would not hesitate to use it again at any reasonable range. I think the 6.5x55 is capable of much bigger game than Elk, with the right bullet.
