That would be a opinion not based on facts. They may be experienced with hunting the game itself but ignorant to ballistics and other calibers they have no experience with. That's almost absurd that anyone especial one that is truely knowledgable with game and balistics could question the lethality of the 270 for elk. Jack O'Connor recomended it and he's a hell of ALOT more experienced than anyone could be today. The Alaska fish and game recommends the 270 as does the Montana Guide association for elk. Premium bullets were never a requirement unless premium bullets are soft points.

Even the .270 is not considered a good elk gun by many very experienced hunters unless one is using premium bullets.
