Gents;
I think this may be old ground... but is the .280 REM a good Elk gun? I ran a quick thread search and the topic didn't pop up.
I like the caliber, and looking for a reason to buy one. Seems like a great round for the reloader.
What are the limitations of a .280 w/ Elk? I want a 300 yrd Elk gun that can make all the shots. Can the .280 perform that role?
I know, the .300 win/.338/7mmRM/.35 whelen, etc are probably better suited. Just looking for an opinion from some smart elk hunters on the .280.
Thanks
