I've been on a few guided hunts out west, once to Colorado and twice to Montana.
Most had .300 Winchester mags. One elk guide had a .338, and prefered that his clients use that round if they could handle it.

Craig Boddington has a couple of books: "American Hunting Rifles" and "African Hunting Rifles". In each, he polled a lot of guides for their choice in calibre, optics etc.

Leupold scopes were far and away the first choice.
In calibres, personal choice for an all around use was the 300 mag, with the 7 mag and the 30'06 tieing for second.
The Nosler Partition was the favorite choice for bullet.
