I am not sure if .338 Win Mag would be my choice for Elk and sheep gun.
I have one in Sako 75 SS and shooting 225 Barnes TTSX for hunting and Hornady SST for plinking.
Easier to handle recoil as compared to friends Tikka in 300WSM with 180 gr. Both have Limb-saver recoil pads.
Gun is only gun I would not go on hunt like this without angle compensating range finder and good scope.
Sako 75 Finnlight in 300 Win Mag with 180 Barnes TTSX gr would be my choice for Sheep and Elk.
