Having an elk go 20 yards after being shot can be a problem up here making the difference between an all day recovery or less than an hour.
I knew Montana was big country, but I never knew it could take you all day to go 20 yards.
Must be like Texas??
I was gonna call BS on that myself. I've killed elk in black timber and have shot them at less than 20 yards several times. If you can't see 20 yards, you have more issues than cartridge/bullet. In fact I tracked one last year I shot at 30 feet with only snow patches about 100 yards.
