Scenar shooter got me hooked on this .308 idea, but I did not take it quite to the level he has with his setup. Mine is rather pedestrian. I have a Kimber 84M Montana. It carries a Leupold VX 3 CDS. The setup is far more capable than I am. Two elk bit the dirt with it this year, as did some deer. ![[Linked Image]](http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee53/BigFinMT/IMG_5142.jpg)
My name is Randy Newberg and I approved this post. What is written is my opinion, and my opinion only.

Bob, I don't have anything remotely the experience with 7's that you and Dober have to respond with any authority... I'm a 30 guy at heart and the bulk of my elk have died at the end of some sort of 30 cal.

Randy, I spent the fall with my 308 MT and took two elk, one antelope and one mule deer at ranges from 185 to 400 yards. Seemed to work. What bullet in yours?
