Like you, I shoot which ever rifle happens to wind up in my hand that day. I shoot exclusively copper, but not exclusively Barnes. Only deer for me,no elk. What you have is just fine.
I have to believe that a .270 pushing an 85 grain Barnes at warp speed would work fine. I've shot 8 or ten deer with the 110 out of my 270 and I won't be going up to 130s for anything for any reason. Did ever take it into my head to kill an elk that'd be the probable choice.
