I shot my Elk with my Sako 338 Win mag with a handload. The load was a Hornady 225 grain SP bullet loaded to 2915 FPS with 74 grains of IMR 4350 and a CCI 250 primer. My Son Glenn borrowed my Sako 7mm mag and that was shot with a reload round also with a Sierra Gameking SBT 160 grain bullet doing 3010 FPS loaded with 66 grains of H4831 and a CCI 250 primer. My Son Jim was using a 30-06 shooting Fedreral Premium ammo in 165 grain with barnes bullet. The animals were all taken on public land in area 61.
