Colorado elk, It wat 450 hanging with head and horns cut off.

Elkcampmaster, if someone was to give me a magnum rifle I would try it out but im not going to spend 500 dollars on a rifle and 200 on a scope to use it for 9 days out of the year which is how long are elk season lasts. Plus we only get to shoot spikes unless we get drawn for a big bull permit so my 270 is more than adequate to shoot a spike bull and a occasional big boy when i draw a permit so it serves me dual purpose for deer and elk. Dont need to widen my " Ballistic horizons" Ive seen enought spikes get shot by 7mags and 300 mags run off to die and not fall over at the hit of the bullett. Im not emotionally attached, alls I ever see you preaching is MAGNUM, MAGNUM, MAGNUM. Just trying to save a guy a little money from guys like you preaching that they have to have a magnum when ol bob happens to have a 270 and have shot it all there life and get told its not big enough so go spend $1500 on a new magnum setup or you wont kill nothin. So go start your new little cuddly and happy thread and all us non magnum shooters can bow down to you.
