A more forgiving caliber won't kill an elk any more when you hit it in the chin or thigh. I'm sure most hunters have missed or pulled a shot. I had one bad year where I missed a few times. The 6mm Remington is the gun I took on my first elk hunt. Though I never got an elk, it was a good rifle for the age I was. I was young and recoil shy. Do I hunt with it now? No. However, if my kids need a rifle that won't rock their world for a youth hunt, the 243 and 7mm-08 will be on my list.
