Thoughts?????


I live in Montana, have killed elk with the 7-08, and don't think you're crazy.

The 140 Accubond would be my first choice, though I've used the 150 Ballistic Tip effectively.

Those that have the least experience killing elk worry the most about armament. The rest of us just use 270's, 7-08's, 308's and the like.
