    I have the opportunity to buy a pre 64 Model 94 for $300. Is this a good gun for elk or should I spend my money else where?

    What caliber is a good one?

    Gray.

    Some friends are going to WY soon to archery hunt. Then they are going back later with rifles for a later hunt and also have cow tags. One has a 300 Win Mag and his brother is taking a 338 Win Mag that I already own and reload for. Any ideas on the best combo of bullet-powder for elk in 300 Win Mag and the 338 Win Mag too.I've loaded a few for this (338) Rem 700 and they had quite a thump so I loaded some reduced loads with cast bullets and IMR 4759 to play.Any advise would be appreciated. BS

    Yes, scopes are legal on BP firearms. Go to http://www.gmfsh.state.nm.us/PageMill_Images/Hunting/BG-RIB02-03.pdf
