Thanks guys, I do like the idea of 338 win mag on it for the classic of it.

338 win mag gets my vote. Have one and love it. My favorite caliber.

It's a good one for sure. It can also be loaded down to 338-06 (and less) levels.

My "ideal" elk rifle is a 22" bbl'd M70 338 WM in a Bansner fiberglass stock with a fixed 6x scope on top. All up weight (scoped, with sling and rounds) 7.5 lbs.

Unfortunately I don't want to shoot or carry my "ultimate" elk rifle any more

Pass the 308 Win, 6.5 CM or 270 Win!

358 Norma Mag. Same ballpark as the 338's - but with more panache! Is also an epically legendary cartridge across the pond but never really got the same attention in the States. I like it.
