AsI said he is buying an Abolt only! So the RUM are out of the question in abolt production rifle. Hehas been dazed by the advertisements/marketing buthas notbought anything yet so still time.

Our main elk party consists of 2 300 RUM shooters(one of who which floats between the the rum and 338wm), 2 7mm rem mag, 1 280 rem and your favorite EKM a 270 win. We also have a 300 wm shooterthat subs in for one of the RUM boys who heads to NWT to hunt with his brother every few years. This year the 300 RUM, 7mm rem mag, 280 remand 270 win did the notching of elk tags. TheRUM actually was the only one where a 2nd shot was fired, wasn't required but the young bull gave him a 2nd chance and rule is if looking for another and ablefeed it to him...he did. The cross section of our results has been pick the right bullet, put it where it belongs, keep within yourlimitations andyou'll have no problems. Nosler Partitions, TSX and Failsafe havedone the majority ofwork in regards to the bullets used. He is on the TSX program, as the failsafe is in wind down so he'll need to find another bullet for 280 rem if he stays with it.Logic suggests all copperbullet will be high on his list since that is his preference now. He is a heavy for cal guy so lighter/faster really doesn't mean a thing to him. One more reason to skip the 325wsm and move to 338wm!! From what most are saying..thank you for the added ammo.

Thanks again for the responses
