It must have been at least 20-25 years ago I loaded some 300 Savage ammo for a friend of mine to use Elk hunting. This guy is very wealthy and could buy any rifle he wanted, but had always Deer hunted with his 99, 300 and wanted to use it. The guy he was hunting with had killed a few bulls by that time with his 30-06, but was skeptical about the old 300. I told him, what the hell, it's 90% of what you're using. I loaded 150 gr Noslers, and to make a long story short, he killed a dandy 6x6, and shot completely thru it broadside. Shoot them where they live, and they will die.
