There's a reason a lot of outfitters have banned 6.5mm cartridges for use on elk recently. I've personally killed one with a creedmoor at 550 yards and wouldn't do it again unless I had no other cartridge options.
Interestingly enough, a buddy who guides for a local outfitter just told me they had hunters use the guides personal rifles, because they had cans (tbac ultra 7's) in.....6.5 creedmoor. They wanted suppressed to keep from pushing elk out of the country. They killed 30 cows with them using the 143eldx factory hunter precision.
