I needed a new .308 Winchester elk round for the upcoming season. Something that would penetrate with good accuracy. I learned my lesson about not using bonded ammo during last elk season.
I tried Remington core-lokts first, but the 180 grainers just didn't group well.
Next, I tried Federal Premium 180 grain Nosler Partitions, and wow, my Remington sure does like them! The groups instantly shrunk, very consistent, and I've heard good things about the Partition round for elk. I'll be going back to the range on Sunday for more practice. Federal Premium ammunition is expensive, but it shoots so well in my rifle that I'll bite the bullet and buy 2 more boxes.
What caliber, rifle, and ammo will you use for elk this season?
