Obviously this thread wasn't intended as a discussion on hunting trophy elk on southwestern reservations during the rut and what cartridges may be best in that context. Any info I'm willing to share on animals, conditions, guidelines, regulations and how it may relate to cartridge choice seems not to be relevant I suppose.

If threads on the fire are going to be info commercials, same as hunting shows on TV really are just commercials with no real substance. Please put an advisory at the beginning so most of us won't waste our time replying to the topic.
