Too much rifle for elk?

[WapitiTalk1]

Found this saved VID lurking on my computer so I thought I'd share it again. Is there such a thing as too much rifle for elk? Well, perhaps

I'm sure some on here will think it's the perfect back country elk rifle

Not sure I would want to be the one to sight it in or work up the most accurate load.  Would be cool if they would have shown what the accuracy was.

Think he needs more eye relief on that scope?

Just put it in a lead sled anchored to the concrete slab, it'll take the kick right out of that mule  and I thought my .338 Edge had some mustard behind it

No thank you....More fun to watch.   I have to admit just watching hurt a little.

As long as you can pack it and don't develope any bad habits...ie flinching, or messing your britches. Oh and afford the ammo....

If you shoot that bull just right it will be gutted with one shot

I don't think that round is large enough to ethically harvest an elk....

I'm thinking a broken collar bone before killing any elk..............

I wouldn't shoot at an animal with that rifle due to the chance of missing it, resulting in more pain to myself then my prey

Bunch is sissies, if they were real men they would have made it a pistol 

[Longbowz]

Egad, that thing would kill and clean both the hunted - and the hunter!
