I hate trying to get pictures on here, but my favorite is my Remington SPS, 7 mag, with B and C stock, 6x Super Chicken, shooting 160 Partitions at 3006 fps. Six elk with it from 300, to 443 yards.

Mines my P64 Alaskan 338 WM. I did restock it with a Legend and put a 6X SS on it last year. It’s been a steady rifle for me while Elk hunting for a couple years now. ![[Linked Image]](http://i723.photobucket.com/albums/ww233/beretzs/2017%20Wyoming%20Elk%20Hunt/77830F39-E004-43F3-AE43-2D34DAC6BC7F_zpslcpzyjpq.jpg) With the wood stock in Oregon one year. ![[Linked Image]](http://i723.photobucket.com/albums/ww233/beretzs/Oregon%202013%20Elk%20Hunt/null_zpsd8660270.jpg) It has been a safety blanket for me.

Very early M70 SS Classic 300Win mag. 1st 2 elk were w/200gn partitions, the next 7 have all been w/200gn TSX. I've had multiple stocks and scopes mounted to it. The stock for the last 10yrs is a McMillan in Super Grade pattern and currently I have a non-AO 4-12x40 Leupold mounted in dual dovetail mounts atop it. I've killed 9 elk with it from 125yds out to 450yds, it just works and I have the utmost in confidence in the package.
I can walk on water.......................but I do stagger a bit on alcohol.

These threads always make great viewing, but the only rifle I posses that is not for elk is a .22LR as I really don't like, nor have any use or interest in small caliber rifles.

Some great rifles and elk in this thread. Thanks for sharing!
I've seen more well-shot game lost with TSXs than any other premium bullet.

Great thread fellas. Some nice pics! Makes me wish I'd have put in for elk along with the deer tag.

My old .300 Win.. It is on its 3rd barrel.. Had it built in 1970. I suppose it has killed close 40 elk with everything from 150 Sierra's to 200 grain Part. When getting elk meat was important to me, I killed acouple elk at over 600 yards.. This was the days before turrets and range finders.. If I live long enough, it will probably take a couple more.. I wouldn't even bother, but my wife and the kids like elk meat.. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/FGm5Mto.jpg)
