RE: Elk Cartridge
Fine. I allays use Nosler 180 in my ' 06. As for any of you 243 elk hunters lurkin' in the shadows out there, take a gander at the bull picture I posted. He took two Noslers, one blowin' the top 1/3 of his heart clean off. He still managed to travel 30 yards straight up hill, and took a full 4 minutes to die, tryin' to git up all the way. I recovered the heart partition on the off side unner the skin, havin' passed thru the offside shoulder. The back end was fully intact an' the front was smashed like a dime in front of it. Elks is tuff critters, deservin' of a proper bullet an' a good shot.
