6.5 124 hammer hunter performance

[OG-danimal]

Hey guys,
This is a question for people who have shot elk with the 124 HH out of a 264 caliber. Has anyone had a bad or less than ideal experience? I've had good luck with bear and deer, and heard lots of good things so far for elk. Just wondering if anyone has used these, but opted for another 6.5 bullet?
Just weighing my options for this fall.
Thanks

Would love to hear: how many shots it took, the reaction of the elk, blood trail, and how far the elk went after the shot before it died

My experience with hammers is limited but all the guys over on the hammer forum all say they hit above their weight class. I shot a mule deer last year at 200 yards with the 110 hammer hunter at 3140fps with my 260rem and he took two steps down hill and folded, bullet shank drove all the way through and I found nose petals on off side in the shoulder and below the hide, so the petals actually almost exited as well. So I would not be afraid to shoot an elk with the 124 out of my 6.5PRC actually looking at the new 125HHT bullet they just released.
