If you plan to use anything except a monometal or partition make sure the Elk is broadside and you put it in the lungs.
2 holes are always better than 1.

How so?
From MV of 3000fps I am hearing they are very explosive within 300 yards and damage a lot of meat if shoulder shot.

They are less explosive than the 140's
Any bullet going 3000 fps will damage a lot of meat with a shoulder shot up close

I shot my desert bighorn almost head on at 175 yards
Bullet entered inside the shoulder travelled all the way through his body to right in front of the hips
Found it just under the hide and I would guess it still had 50% of its weight
I showed it to one of my guides and he threw it down the mountain and we couldnt find it after lol
