Art, for the record, that elk now resides in my freezer, having had the top of it's heart shot off by someone who waited for the shot they wanted, because they could, and then took it.

Also for the record, run the numbers on the 208-gn Amax (BC of .648; it's not in the library of the calculator below) at 2600 fps from a .308, Compared to Banned Stick's load (162 Amax at 2700 fps) and get back to me on exactly HOW minute a difference ya'll are getting all horned up over. Pretty funny stuff, considering we could just as easily make a case for the .308's retained energy and bullet weight, which do matter just a bit too...

Here's a calculator kids. I'm going skiing. Have a nice day; I will be, knock on wood <g>.
