I am going elk hunting in early December. Does anyone have a favorite elk load for the 8x57? I'm thinking either a 200 gr partition at around 2,500, or a 175 Sierra around 2,800. i have a really accurate load with 170 gr SSTs at around 2,850 using CFE223, however I don't feel like that is a good elk bullet. At least not at the ranges that I'm used to shooting elk at. Which is usually around 50-200ish yards.
