RE: Very first Elk
Just thought I would add that I shot him with a weatherby vanguard in a 300 short magnum caliber, winchester supreme elite 180 grain bullet from about 50 yards, shot him the first time right in the lungs and he didnt even move so I thought I might of missed him so I shot again in the lungs and down he went and sure enough there was 2 holes in him, got lucky and I never had to do any tracking, took about 2 hours to gut,skin, and quarter then about another 2 worth of walking but it was all well worth it and I would do it again in a heartbeat!!!
