"IF" Could Hunt ... all he needs is a Winchester Model 70 in 257 Roberts. Max would be a 6.5x55.
Men, PROUD men and Strong Hunting Ladies uses a semi auto 351 (Bought cheap from Prisons and Police) or a Commercial 30 Remington, Semi Auto. Such latter guns were owned only by the wealthy yet, in time, brought Home many Bucks & Elks. Even an M1 Carbine can totally kill an Elk, Trophy Elk indeed. 30-30'zzz 30-40 Craigs, and my favorite = open sighted M1 Garand.
If Elk does not reload, he is missing out on vast accuracy truths.
Oh well, I doubt Elk would ever go seriously Elk Hunting with a 257 Roberts. Getting up out of Camp Sleeping Bags = Hard. Hiking up hills = Hard. Killing Meat, = Simple.
Sorry, I am in California. Elk is a Mountain Man in Free Utah. My Boo-Boo.
BigJohnT;
Please tell Elk to sell his 460 truck to my Daughter
She would drive to Elk to Buy it...(BigJohnT to inspect the Truck first....He is a Family Man I Trust)
