I would have no problem using my 243 with partitions or hornady interlocks or ttsx on controlled shots for a bull elk.

A lot of deer were lost with the cheap Win 80 gr and some even with their 100 gr cup/core back in the day before good bullets came in vogue.

A little hole going into the chest cavity and not exiting limits blood trail quality and loses lots of deer for inexperienced hunters where there is dense cover.
