Opinions??

I have read some of the comments below on this topic and am really just starting to look at and get familiar with different types of guns. I did some deer hunting as a kid in Michigan. I am in the military and haven't had the opportunity to do a lot of hunting the last few years, but I am getting ready to move to Montana and can't wait to learn all about and try my hand at some elk hunting. I have an old .303 British rifle and would love to hear some of the opinions of others with a little more gun experience than myself. I know that most .303 bullets come in 150 or 180 grains and that it drops off some outside of 250-300 yards. Any thoughts?
