Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting Berger bullets for elk?

I've read most of this and being a novice elk hunter (killed one)that chases more than shooting them, no way will I go after them with a VLD. I have to put too much out there to be using a hollow point cup and core bullet. Deer I have no problem with it around the house. If I'm traveling after mule deer again I'll use a better bullet. By better I mean something along the lines of TTSX, TSX, Partition, Swift A-Frame and a few others along those lines. Penetration being my main concern as long as the bullet will open up to a certain degree. Not much chance for a blowup on the shoulder bone or whatever.

Just my humble opinion fellas.
