When I was just getting interested in shooting and hunting, back in the long lost days of yore, all of the old experienced hunters thought a .30/30 was the perfect deer rifle and that the .300 Savage, .30/40 and .303 British were where real elk and moose rifles started. Quite a few of them also thought the .35 Remington, with its awesome power, was a great elk and moose rifle.

Hunting elk with a .300 Savage would be great fun, for everybody except the elk.
