Having guided a few elk hunts, the very last thing I would ever want to tell a client is what bullet to use!
There are enough problems, things you can't control. Saying what bullet to use now opened up a new can of worms!
I drew a tag in Wyoming and most of the unit was wilderness, which requires a guide for non-residents. I asked the guide (a well-regarded career outfitter, not some local part timer) if there was anything he really wanted me to use. He said kenetrek boots and Berger bullets. It really took a big dose of convincing to get me to use them, as I am more in the Partition to TTSX crowd. But we took two bulls with the 168gr .284 Berger and the terminal performance was exemplary. The "go in two inches and wreak havoc" thing really happened.
