Thats a pretty good load you have there. Personally, I would go with Nosler ABs for elk. You have a shooter there.

And that’s using factory ammunition. I haven’t done any load development beyond buying the match die set. The muzzle velocity above was measured….a bit higher (3 %) than stated on the factory box.

hows it feed..?

Long Action or "Short"......??????

 

[rthor]

Short action…hence Short Action Ultra Magnum. Feeds super smoothly. In fact, since it’s Controlled Round Feed, you have to feed from the magazine even for single shots. You’ll never drop a round in the dirt.
