^^^^^^^^^^^Hell of a testament right here^^^^^^^^^^^
AGREED
Out of how many elk kills? That could make difference I guess.
That’s a solid point.
My ol buddy has a log book of every elk his father and himself have taken with location, range, etc since the late 50’s. They were pretty regular elk killers with each of them taking 2 elk quite a few times when they hunted both Idaho and Oregon, with some Wyoming in there too. No failures per se. Some of the recovered Bullets (180 Partitions from a 30-06, 300 Win and 300 Wby) look like hell but they were all pretty much either caught in the far side hides or big bones.
It’s a helluva track record with over a 100 elk at this point.
