    Bullet weight for elk ?

    We were talking about if a 30-30 would be legal for elk if so what grain bullet would be best .
    any hunters care to chime in

    Would it be legal, yes, would it be the cartridge I would choose, no unless you are 100 yds or less. Shot placement is everything, if a Bow and arrow will kill and elk so will a .30-30. Even a .22 could kill one, its all about the shot placement.

    I would use something with more power, .308 minimum in my eyes
