Default RE: 30-30 for elk?

Elkamp,
You have changed my mind about elk hunting with a 30-30. Looking back, picturing that bull at 50 yards, I would feel undergunned with a 30-30. I can't think of one reason to take a 30-30 elk hunting if there are any other rifles to be had. There are just too many other options I can think of that are more suited for elk.

crobride, I'm not above adimitting when I am wrong. Please excuse my previous posts.
If I were you, I would tell your friend that elk are not deer. And it would best to use another gun than to use a 30-30 and possibly ruin a great hunt. Good luck.
