Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting The 300 Wby Mag for elk- is there anything better?

I was very impressed with my partners 300 Wby and 200 grain AB at 3050FPS this year. He shot a good 6x6 bull right around 200 yards in the rear of the ribcage and recovered it towards the front of the animal.. It didn't wander off at all and he hammered it with a 2nd that put him down for keeps.









Never would say a 100 other cartridges wouldn't have worked just as well, but it comforting to have that big Wby when the ranges are longer, if you can shoot it well.
