The combination you have laid out will be awesome on elk. The 210 or 215 bergers are great bullets and will do the job you want. If you intend to shoot beyond 1200 yards, give serious consideration to the 230berger. (the velocity of the 210 or 215 overcome their lesser BC to the 230 but when the distances get long, the BC of the 230 takes over)

Feenix suggestion to use the search function is a good one. I have found good load data here: 308_15

As an FYI, my 300rum liked 91grains of Retumbo shooting the 208Amax.
