    nice bull. The one we shot this fall soaked up 1230 grains of lead before going down

    Based on the one I have shot and the many tales from others of how elk suck up lead and walk, there is no other animal except maybe a grizz that I feel stronger about "SHOOT TIL ITS DOWN" than an elk!!!!!

    ps great work getting er done

    Lol no shocker, that elk had the body of a Yukon moose. seriously the largest bodied bull rocky mtn elk I have ever seen. maybe next time use the 6.5 creedmore, I hear they kill better than any magnum

    great bull congrats.


    ps in my opinion 338 is the best elk gun on the planet and yes those elk can be stubborn.

    I miss my 338 win. but then again I just sit and look now so that overpowered 30-378 does great at 800

    years ago I went from moose to elk the first one I split I keep looking at my axe as moose were easy . Some go straight down or just stand there and die while others just go till out of blood .
