This is hunting update from this post

viewtopic.php?f=4&t=31038

I shot 270 and 270 Wby pretty much all summer long. I stuck to my plan on using 270 and 270Wby as back for that buck tag. On 7th day of the hunt I got nice mature 4x5 buck and was about 200yds and I'll see if I can post pictures later. One shot and he dropped in his tracks and not that much damage.

I got a cow elk hunting starting next month and was going to use 30-06 with 150gr E-Tip and I just may use 270.

30-338, good work!

Please post pics of your buck and cow elk when you get one! I am a .30-06 slinger from way back so you know what gets my vote (not that it matters anyways, my vote that is) but I have nothing but respect for the .270 as well.

Good luck.
