I had one day to hunt Montana for myself, hiked 4.5 miles into a nasty canyon, bulls were there.

Model 70 xtr featherweight, 30.06 with 180 grain Hornady Poly tip, 440 yards, one shot angled up into chest, he stood up out of his bed and faced me, second shot through the throat, dropped in his bed.  Took four of us all day to pack out with mules brought within a mile of kill site.  Public land bull. Two other bulls with him, both bigger but no shot opportunity.

Very nice bull!  Great job!  For some reason when you get those elk down in some nasty hole they just seem to taste sweeter.
