At that range for elk, I would say you will need to step up to the 300 rum or 338 rum. Load them will some heavy stuff too.
 
I assume you do not want to reload?

In a factory load I would go with the .300 RUM.

The .338 Lapua would also be good if you could obtain a suitable supply of factory ammo with a good long range hunting projectile.
