Guys I have a couple of questions regarding which rifle to take elk hunting. I have hunted for 20 plus years with my 06, I have taken numerous deer and antelope with it. I am extremely comfortable with it. When my dad passed I inherited his 338 win mag that he used for elk hunting. I have shot it, but never hunted with it. The recoil does not bother me. I just wanted everyone's advice on which gun would be the better gun to take to Wyoming this fall. I drew a unit 7 tag, and this will more than likey be a once in a lifetime deal for me, and I want to make sure I have the best gun for the job. Whichever gun i choose I will practice with all through the summer shooting in hunting positions. I know both will cleanly kill an elk, but I just was curious as to everyone's opinion on what they think is the best and why. Thanks in advance for any input.
