That is what I would be carrying if I were hunting for elk with a 30-06. IMO, it is the best compromise between speed and weight.

I would be careful with this ammo. A LOT of pictures to support they are pushing the limits of HOT Loads with pressure in this line of ammo. 1 in 4 with primers gone after they are shot from one guy. Definite signs of high pressure.
