Default RE: OPINIONS ON THE REMINGTON 300 ULTRA MAG

I bought my 300 RUM this past January, mostly for elk. I reloaded 180 gr barnes triple shock x bullets and I get 3430 for velocity. As far as energy, I get more down range energy than the 338 Win Mag. I love this gun. I have not been able to take an elk with it, but have taken a sheep and two mulies with it. All over 300 yards. Sheep 300 yards, mulie 350 yards and mulie 540 yards. The last one was a very long shot, and would not have taken it with any other gun. All were one shot kills that dropped where they stood. I really want to see what it will do to an elk. My groups are less than 1 inch at 100 yards.
