Default RE: 270’s, 270’s, 270’s…. I Think I’m Gonna Puke!

Rebel, I know for a fact that EKM has no problem with bowhunters and has done nothing but praise them in the past. When done correctly even EKM will agree that broadheads are very deadly. If I was ever to shoot an elk with a rifle. (something I never plan do do) I would look at the 30-06 and above. I guess if you were to comapre me to EKM there would be some similarities as I like to shoot elk with at least a 500 grain arrow. That would be my comparison to a big bore bow. Penetration is a huge asset when it comes to heavy boned animals whether it be rifle or bow. I flip EKM some crap from time to time for fun but he is very knowledgible when it comes to rifles and big game. In 2007 I am planning a hunt to chase browns with a bow. You can bet that I will have somebody with something larger than a 22-250 sitting behind me.
