The wife got her cow yesterday evening. One shot 250 yards 6.5-06 140 grain berger. She hit the cow slightly quartering away. Bullet broke rib on entree and went through lungs and came to rest against the hide on opposite side just behind the shoulder crease.\
the berger retained 56% of its weight
Thank you for the post and photos :wink:. Please congratulate your wife on a fine Elk, I am sure that there will some fine dining this coming winter and in every bite there will be a wonderful memory .
