The .357 is a very light big game rifle cartridge. Adequate for close range smaller deer (like around here) with good shot placement.

Either the .308 or .270 are perfectly adequate deer cartridges to 400 yards and frankly you run out of field accuracy before you run out of effectivness.

Either should do fine on elk at closer ranges - sub 300 yard stuff.

Shot placement (as usual) rules!
