I like the Federal Premium with Sierra GameKing 165 grain bullets. Accurate and hits hard. The bullet will not take a lot of bone on a close shot, if you are a shoulder shooter try the Trophy Bonded or Partition loads as you never know when a shot of less than 30 yards will present itself. If you shoot your elk in the heart and lungs you will look long and hard for a bullet that works better than the GameKing.
