Default RE: Which Bullet For Elk

370 grain maxiballs should get the job done, but this year I switched to the Hornady FPB 350 grain. Shot a cow at 80 yards. Went through the left shoulder blade, broke a rib, took out the top of the heart, broke another rib, lodged under the skin on the opposite side. Good frontal expansion with about 85% weight retention. She went 50 yards.
