Default RE: Which would you choose?

There’s no doubt that you can efficiently kill any big game animal with any of the above-mentioned cartridges. I, however, am still in love with the plain old .308 Winchester. I’ve found it extremely accurate in my old Savage model 99, and have dropped an elk dead in its tracks at 200 yards. I am not a fan of extreme long shots, but in my reading, the military has found that is has very consistent drop at long ranges.
