Chapman, there are a lot of good conicals besides those expensive two you mention. If a person is lucky enough to get an Omega with a well made barrel and properly done QLA section (well, properly would be"absent" but...) it should shoot well with any number of bullets. But the rifle's trigger guard can be BRUTAL when shooting heavy loads.
Some of the Knights shoot conicalsvery well. But I would also recommend a White if you can locate a good specimen. Parts are rapidly becoming an issue with the Whites though. Several recently wanted to buy extra triggers (as future insurance) and a special order had to be made from the makers of Bold triggers.
UC, Please point this out to the gentlement that posted. I am aware of several other ones, but I don't have the experience with them that some do on this forum, so it is better if they respond from their experience. elkhunter004 is selecting a gun/bullet combination for a ML elk hunt, in ML season not rifle season, because if it is rifle season then any in-line with any bullet is legal in Rifle season. Please give him bullets you think will do the job and a gun that will do the job. I think either the Omega or Encore will do the job for him with whatever bore sized conical that shoots well in the gun he buys.
Chap
