Brad, read Finn alot, one article his wife was going after elk with her Sako 7/08. Apparently after she bagged her elk, they discovered she grabbed the wrong ammo, 140 Rem CL is what she used. IIRC, the older loadings used the 139 IL SP - over W760. Nothing fancy, but you can bet she used good shot placement. Hmm.
Anytime Elk and the 6.5 comes up, I think of Alan aka GSSP. His Elk was taken just under 1,000 yds using a 47 Lapua w/127 LRX. One shot.....
Yeah, that must have been luck right? It's not rocket science.
If one used archery as an analogy, "Is this Bow powerful enough for xyz?"
Well put a sharp broadhead thru vitals and get back with me....after you dressed your game.
