Although it is fairly important to find out what your gun likes, it's more important to find out what the elk need.
Most agree that 1 180 gr C&C would be better suited, although there are some here that swear by the Barnes mono in lighter bullets Just as there will be several that tell you the 165 gr HPBT will kill elk ( which it will). I'm not one of them.
To save yourself a lot of time and thinking ,just buy some 180 grain partitions. Can't ever go wrong with them
