sounds like yoy need to stick with something on the 30-06 level. an 30-06 is perfect for elk and deer but if i were you i would keep my options open though dont forget to look at other cartridges .270, or .280 both are flat shooting rounds. i own a winchester model 70 .280 featherweight (I love this gun) and i have killed four elk and 3 deer with it. all of them folded in their tracks with one shot with the exception of one of the elk she made it 40 yards before taking the dirt nap. lately i have been intrested in not so common guns ive been looking at some 7mm-08's (sweet round.) and a 300 wsm.
