Default RE: Elk: Recommend .270 or 30/06 hot/flat-shooting ammo?

Thanks for setting me straight! Didn't realize they offer them with bullet choices including: interlocks/SST's/ or Interbonds. Glad they do. Here are the ballistics you were referring to with the interbond:

.30-06 Sprg., 165 gr. IB [align=right]85159[/align] Velocity (fps) / Energy (ft-lbs) Muzzle 100 yd 200 yd 300 yd 400 yd 500 yd 3015/3330 2802/2876 2599/2474 2405/2118 2219/1803 2041/1526

Those values outperform standard 7 mag loads and have a very flat trajectory.

Going to have to get me some to see how my gun likes them! thanks
