Holy jumping jimimey! We agree on something

Not neccessarily a 'poor choice' but the fact that more importantly there are better choices available.

I have often thought and still do think if I were hunting with a Nosler .451-260 grain Partition, that was the bullet that I used for deer hunting and I ran into an elk what would I do?

I made this decision, if the animal was under a 100 and offered the 'good shot' i would go ahead and make the shot. I have a lot of confidence in the ability of the Nosler, Barnes, and Lehigh to penetrate and with the energy that bullet would have i felt comfortable with that decision.

Of course a head shot moots the whole point... shoot the Native Americans in Alaska use 22's but I admit they are better than I...
