I had absolutely no problems killing 8 of my first 10 elk with my .30-06. Most were shot with 180 grain Sierra GameKing bullets, and a few with 150 grain Hornady Spire Point bullets. Although my favorite elk rifle now is my .300 Weatherby, I still think that the .30-06 is a good elk cartridge. If I would hunt elk now with a .30-06 I would probably use 180 grain Accubond or Barnes TTSX bullets.
