Well, this past fall I carried the mighty 3 B, a friend the 3 WSM but this friend who'd never hunted anything larger than a coyote was carrying a Tikka 270. A Fed load with a 150 gr Nosler (chono'd at 2860 fps out of his barrel) at 200 yds. One through the pump room and about twenty steps and that was it.

Is the 3 B the best for elk? It depends on who you talk to. wink
