I hike the area I hunt everyday. Yesterday I had a shot of 50 yds on an elk. Today I had a 200 yd shot on a coyote. It makes no sense to use the same load. Plus, my elk load cost me $2.00 a round. Way too much for coyote.
Besides, my elk load kicks like a mule. Ok for one shot, but not on a daily basis.
