All elk taken have been downed with one shot from 30-06, 7RM and 7x57 AI. Most fell on the spot or dropped within 30 yds.

Pigs did the same after being shot with 243 Win and 6.5-06. HOWEVER, all were still kicking.
a shot in the head, another shot in the head and a final shot in the head were required to finally get them to stop twitching.

My vote goes to the porkers as more hardy.
