RHINO Report post Posted July 11, 2012 Im having trouble finding a good elk load for my 300 um. This will be my first time hunting elk with a rifle. I was wanting to go to a heavier bullet prefferably a 200 grain. I thought I had found it, shot a .4 inch 3 shot group at 100 yards but when I stepped back to 400 hundred it was at 9". I have a good deer load that I use, 180 grain barnes ttsx, should I just stick with 180's? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
outdoor rush Report post Posted July 11, 2012 Just stick with the 180's. I shoot 185 VLD Bergers, with 95grns of retumbo out of my rum and it is an easy 1000yd gun. 180's will be just fine for your elk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
