[QUOTE="Asaltwpn, post: 739408, member: 4701"] Hello UPSman, Don't want to discourage you but you might want to reconsider taking a bigger gun than the 7-08. I have a 7-08 and the range is not that far and it sure doesn't have the knock down to bring down a big bull. I've taken numerous elk and we only use a 300 win mag or larger. Even with a 7mm we have had to track to many lost elk. It is heart breaking to see a big bull run off after a perfect shot with a small caliber bullet. Just my 2 cents but hope you enjoy your hunt. Nothing like hearing that big bull bugle. [/QUOTE]
