[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3020296, member: 5412"] My elk this January was a 440 yards. This is why I'm opting for the heavier bullets. Handloaded Barnes 165 grain in 30-06 using a Browning Stainless Stalker rifle to be exact. I recovered one bullet a couple of years ago on a double lung on the off side under the skin. It was a picture perfect example of Barnes perfection. Still have the bullet. My buddy next to me fired 6 rounds from a Savage .338 Lapua with a Schmidt/Bender $4000 scope and missed 6 times. Money does not produce a kill as he thought it would. Shooting in the mountains at altitude is not like Oklahoma shooting. [/QUOTE]
