[QUOTE="4onaside, post: 279276, member: 2975"] Without a lot of words, yes, a 7mag is as good as you would wantIMO. I killed a running 6 x5 with one, and he rolled like a cottontail hit with a load of #6's. The last bull that I killed(and a cow last year), I killed with a 30.06, 180 gr. Nosler partitions. My buddy has also killed two with an .06. None of these animals went over 15 yards. So, don't fall into the hype of having to have a super mag to kill an elk. It just ain't so. Just about any good whitetail rifle will do, if you use common sense bullets. [/QUOTE]
