This young Cow should be real good eats. This is my first kill with a ML and only the second time I've got this tag. I'm shooting a Rem 700 .50. I shot a .385gr Hornady Plains Bullet over 110gr of FF and a CCI cap. Peep sight at around 100yds. ![[Linked Image]](http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss226/ken6949/ELK_zpscb5c4157.jpg)

America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

Very very cool. Shows us old farts are not over the hill yet.

Nice.!
Did she stop that bullet or did you get a pass thru.?
My uncle has a Rem 700 .54 that likes those discontinued 390gr. GP bullets

I was going to say she did not stop it unless it was a length wise shot.
Having seen how the old 460gr Buffalo Bullets from a 54 penetrated on elk, lengthwise will get no bad comments from me.

Good going. That would be a fun hunt.

Congrats.
I hunted MZ elk and ate tag soup. Any elk is a good elk in my book.
