Short Action Elk Caliber

[Rooster52]

The Ruger 7-08 gets my nod.Even though the lowest priced rifle I own'the light weight makes it a better mountain rifle.

What round will you be using? And what kind of groups from that round?

308 has withstood the test of time.

So far I have not found a bullet that this Ruger does not like

I think the Accubond is a little more accurate of the bullets I have tried but all the bullets I have shot give under two inch groups.,huntable accuracy. Still working on loads.

Close shots would put the Partition at the top of my list. I think they are a bit more durable than the accubond over all.

I have a harder time get into shooting range of an elk than I do deciding what to shoot them with...
