[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1922377, member: 68875"] When people say "for any North American game", do they really mean "ANY"? Polar bear, grizzly, brown bear, musk ox, moose are big animals. I wouldn't want to carry anything smaller than a .30 for the big dangerous bears, or even in country where they live. .338 better, .375, even more better. Out of the 3 you suggested, 28 Nosler all day for "all North American" game. If elk is really your limit, any of those three would work. The 28 just puts a bit more heavy bullets on the platter for you to choose from. 6.5 is limited to 150, 153.3, 156, 160gr. .277 gets a bit heavier with 160, 165, 170gr. .284 goes 180, 183, 184, 190, 195, 197gr.
