Lots of elk have been taken with all of the cartridges mentioned. I would take which ever one you shoot the best.

Really nothing more than our 308's Win pushing a 130 TTSX @ 3,280 fps, or the 7mm-08 running a 120 TTSX @ 3,150 fps or a 139 LRX @ 3,000...

20 GT AI, 20cal, 41gr HHT ready to bite into some coyotes! 🐺
