Got this 5X5 on Saturday afternoon. Bugled him in to 50 meters and shot him through the lungs
with the .338 Win Mag. Still ran for some 200 meters before dying.
Man those elk are tough!!

The magnum rifle was developed for shooting out past 500 yards. I have taken all my elk with a 30/06 with no problems with them running more that 30 yards !! My grandson has taken elk with his 6.5x55 at 200 yard plus with no problems at all, run maybe 50 yards at the most !!!
