Need some help guys! I have an Elk hunt planned in Oct, it’s my first elk hunt. I am shooting my 300 Win Mag and need ammo. I currently shoot Hornady 180 grain SST ammo. I am looking for a good round for Elk. I’ve been told either Nosler or a round that shoots an accubond bullet. I can’t locate this ammo anywhere local or online! Any suggestions would be appreciated. If you’re willing to sell 2 boxes I’d be grateful! I need 180 grain or heavier for my rifle. I also have a 7 mad that I could use if someone would be willing to sell me 2 boxes of ammo that is designated for elk.
Thanks for your suggestions and help. If you know of anyone with this ammo in stock let me know. I’m located in the Dallas area, I can come to you or pay shipping.

I have 2 boxes of federal fusion I’d let go, they are 165 gr spitzer boat tail though. I paid $55 a box, and that’s what I’d want for it. If it helps ya any..
I bought 4 boxes of this in January of this year, it was the only 300 win mag I seen on the shelf since.. regrettably I paid a lot for it but beggars can’t be choosers

Good luck on your hunt. How many rounds of the Hornady SSTs do you have left?

Thank you TAB for the offer- I appreciate it. I have 4 boxes of Hornady SST’s to use if I have to. I’d really like to use a accubond or stronger type bullet if at all possible. Thanks again for your offer! I have 2 boxes of federal fusion I’d let go, they are 165 gr spitzer boat tail though. I paid $55 a box, and that’s what I’d want for it. If it helps ya any..

Did you see my posts? I know you’re trying not to bump your own thread, and I get that. 200 grain ELD-X bullets will put an elk or mule deer down in a heart beat. Get them from me or somewhere else, doesn’t matter

TLEW I did see your post, thank you for responding. Sorry for the slow response, I was out of town at my grandsons birthday. I wanted to do some research on that round for Elk. I'll contact you this week if that is okay to discuss. I will PM you. Thank you for your offer and being willing to help me out! Did you see my posts?

The 200gr ELDx will kill elk just fine... The 3 to the left were all shot with 300 Win mag with 200gr ELD X the far right was 145 gr ELDX from 270 Win . ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/09/full-31762-308579-0141c263_58dd_4a6e_b819_e0334890449d.jpeg)
