Look at the 7mm-08, 308, 270win, 280, or the 30-06. All will kill deer and elk with authority!
I felt like a one legged cat trying to bury a terd on a frozen pond!

7-08 in a nice light rifle, enough medicine for anything in this state, it won't kick much, and your shoulder won't feel like it's going to fall off after you've packed it around all morning.
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun

if you have shot any of the above mentioned go with that, shoot what your comfortable with, a well placed shot is the important thing, :tup: but i dont like tracking so i go big! 300 takes care of everything you can hunt. but my shoulder hates me!! :chuckle: :chuckle:
