Elk are not armor-plated at all but they usually don't react to a good chest hit like other animals. Your 375 MAG is plenty of gun if you do your part and I'm assuming you've practised with it plenty of times.

I feel that practising at 200 yards using makeshift field rest positions is more helpful than 100 yard bench shooting.
