in the Hayman fire burn area in August ..... wide open spaces there. Did not see any elk.

That's because they moved to the timber. :-)
I'm not saying long shots are not there...just that they're not typical ime. I note that Jacks Elk was @<100 yds.
At the risk of offending some, and such is not my intent...but doesn't hunting involve stalking? If I see Elk at 250+ yds, I'm stalking closer. I think perhaps setting up for shots at inordinate distances is more of an ambush than hunting. Again, no offense, just my opinion of hunting.
