Title: 300 blk
Post by: DJ_Mack on November 10, 2014, 06:03:38 PM

Has anyone hunted with a .300 blackout yet? And what are your thoughts? In Washington state would you use it for elk?

Personally, I would not use it for elk, deer, yes but not elk, and I would stay away from long range shots too  :twocents:

I've shot a couple of hogs with mine.
It does the trick on them. Think of it as a lite 30-30 for power/ energy. I wouldn't use it on elk but if it's all you have and you pick and choose your shot, a bullet through the lungs will get it done.

No on elk. Deer on closer range shots sure :tup: 125 btip will do the trick for ya.
