This like Ford or Chevy type of conversation or what broadness to use. In my opinion, it’s borderline. I’ve killed many elk and a perfect broadside shot with good placement would probably be fine. However a not so good shot or frontal might not be. Elk are so tough. I’ll just say if I had a client make a non-fatal shot on an elk and used an undersized cartridge, I would say, “well yeah, you should of used a larger caliber”. My humble opinion only.
Shot placement always sounds good until your heart is pounding at 200 beats per minute and you can see the breathe of a 900lbs monster.
