I don't know about elk, but .243 would work on anything from prarie dogs to deer.Hey buds, I was thinking about getting back into hunting. I used to go back in the 80s with my dad, but after he passed I just have not had the chance to go. So, what I am looking for is a good caliber that I could maybe hunt Varmints all the way up to maybe elk. Does a caliber even exist? I was thinking .243 but it may be a bit light for a big elk.
Any suggestions?
Interesting story with the .41 Mag.Handgun: .41 Remington Magnum/.41 Special (wildcat),
Rifle: .30-'06. Springfield
Okay, I really don't know, so I'll approach this from a different angle and hopefully learn something.
What shortcomings would make 30-06 less than the ideal all-around hunting caliber if I could only have one rifle?
Interesting story with the .41 Mag.
It was originally offered in two loads; 210gr. JSP @ 1500 f/s & 210gr. SWC @ 1050 f/s.
The jacketed bullet was supposed to be the hunting load, the SWC was supposed to be the police load.
No one ever used the SWC and officers complained that the jacketed load was too powerful for duty use.
.357 was much more controllable and worked just as good, so it won the day.

Okay, I really don't know and I don't have a dog in the fight, so to speak. Let me approach this from a sort of reverse angle and hopefully learn something.
