I live in Pennsylvania and I bought an 06 as an all around caliber. It is inexpensive to shoot factory ammo and I feel it can handle anything outside of a grizzly safely. But if I lived out west and were hunting elk every year not every 3 - 4 years I would have bought a 300 WM or WSM. That...

Has anyone seen any ballistics gel tests on penetration/wound cavities for the etips. I wondering if they can penetrate on par with heavier 165 and 180 grain premium lead bullets.
