[QUOTE="DreamingMan, post: 4365077, member: 5222"] Yep. I agree about these calibers of ammo. I'll probably never go elk hunting again. However, I got my .270 (150 g) to work immediately and efficiently a few years ago. That being said, the same .270 (usually 135 g) has the same efficiency on deer in Oklahoma. Do not hurry your shot, place it well and 90% you won't have to chase the animal far or at all. FWIW, I think at 30-30 does a fine job. I just don't have one or I would probably be singing its accolades. Less $, less kick. Someone mentioned a fine Zeiss scope (or similar) earlier; that is one of the best recommendations you could take regarding optics. Also, serval hundred dollars on binoculars. I use Nikon Monarch 8x? and 10x? Good luck and be safe :) [/QUOTE]
