Great thread, enjoyable to hear hunter-favorites. I have taken elk with 30-30, 30-06, and 300 weatherby.
I no-longer have the weatherby, gave that butt-kicker to my godson, who wanted a 30 cal magnum. (Win-win-situation... he WANTED a magnum, and I wanted a good reason to go back to the ‘06!!)
My godson is very happy, and I’m even happier, back to my personal favorite: 30-06/200-grain partition.
