re: Calling long range shooters and elk/ram hunters

Get whatever caliber your heart desires but to think an elk can't be taken at 600 with a WM is foolish. The guy I went elk hunting with this year has taken an elk at 450 yds with a 270 130 gr. bullet. That's all he uses. Plenty of elk being taken at 1000 yards on youtube with the 300. If you want a 338 or a 500 get whatever but to say a 300 isn't capable of what your asking is just wrong.
