I don't care on the price but I do want to get SOME benefits for paying more. I prefer 180 grain. Here are my questions.
What is the best round in 30-06 for taking elk at close distances (30 yards to 250 yards)? (obviously need good expansion but not too fast) Why?
What is the best round in 30-06 for taking elk at long distances (400 to 500 yards)? Why?
Also, what technique should I use in making long distance shots? (mil dots, elevated turrets on the scope) Right now I just guess and hold it over. I don't really want to buy a range finder.
