no please dont the elk can be killed with a 22 but just a stunt in my book. the 300 was never designed for this. i load thousands of rounds for 300 a week both sub-sonic and lighter bul. please use it for what it was built for. just my opp.
Do you consider handgun or bow hunting of elk to be a 'stunt' as well?
The .300BLK is as capable as my .44 Magnum revolver and carbine at ranges at which I would use either of them and somewhat better at longer ranges. I think for most the .300 BLK is a better choice than a bow at bow ranges. (I don't bow hunt but have buddies that do or have. I know of one who has skewered at least two deer but never recovered one.)
