5 of our 6 elk (3 cows and 3 small bulls) were taken with 308s last elk season in Utah. Ammo was 165s and 180 Power Points and Core-lokts, shots were less than 100 yards and no elk went farther than 30 yards after shot. Within its range, the 308 has no problem dropping elk.


This one of the bullets we recovered, don't remember what brand it was.
