Your Elk Hunting Rifle

[Skarrchery]

I’ll split time between 6.5 PRC and 6 Ceed.

Like the PRC? Strong heavy hitting?

The 6.5PRC is great, easy to shoot, accurate and works very well on game.

.338 win mag with 215 gr Sierra with Imr 4350 is bang flop on elk .

Tikka T3X .300 mag shooting 178 gr ELDXs, the ELDXs have performed really well for me on elk and muleys.

30+ years hunting moose, this year I bought my first ever elk tag. Packing my old handed down custom pre 64 375-338wm firing 260gr accubonds.

Iv heard elk bugles are addicting? Looking forward to hearing one finally.

Just upgraded to a Tikka T3x 300WM on an XLR chassis with a NF SHV 3x10 and a harvester evo suppressor. For how light it was it shot smoother then I could have imagined. I also shed several lbs over my old rifle.

Oh wait you said rifle!!

Switched it up this season with a new rifle. Scratched a wood stock rifle the last time out and it was hard to stomach. Went with a high performance budget build IMO
.78 grouping
Browning X-Bolt OD Green in 300 win Mag. 180 Grain Nosler Accuabonds. Leupold VX-3HD windplex

Just broke it in this past week and removed the muzzle break after the first shot - ringing ears with double ear pro

R700 3006. 180 AB handload. Nikon 3x9x50.

I really want to re-barrel to 280ai though.

I use a handed down, sporterized Springfield M1903, manufactured in 1906 based on the serial #, the first vintage of .30-06. I'll probably upgrade to an x-bolt in the next couple years but for now there's something satisfying about knowing that a rifle that's seen a couple world wars can still fill the freezer. Especially when you throw some fancy new bullets in it. Barnes TSX 180gr

Kimber Hunter 6.5cm, 147 ELD-M (Hand loads)

Load developing for my new rifle for an elk hunt this fall. Custom Rem 700 in .300 Ultra Mag. Looking forward to using it and seeing how it'll do. Shooting 215 Begers around 3k fps w/Bartlein barrel and an nx8 and a Gunwerks 8ight can.

My first elk kill was with a 243 lever action Browning which was a long time ago but now I find myself back using the same caliber but a different cartridge. The 6CM is my go to for everything.
