I didn't get my Grendel built this year in time to go elk hunting, but I won't have any concerns as long as I stay within my limits like Von Gruff says. My personal limits are going to be: proper bulllet (most likely the hornady SST), my effective range based on this bullet (terminal performance) most likely under 250 yds. and shot placement, (waiting for broadside or high percentage shot). within these limitations, I see no reason why the Grendel isn't an elk capable cartridge. After thinking long and hard, this is going to be my do-it-all rifle instead of my 7mm Rem Mag.
