Have you talked with your PH about using a 6.5mm on Eland?
He likely will severely limit your shot opportunities with such a light rifle.
If you are hunting a game farm, this might not matter, ie plenty of opportunities.
I have hunted Eland on a game farm in RSA (with a 300 mag) and in the wild in Zim and I would not hunt them in the wild with anything less than a 375...just because with the limited opportunities you cannot demand such a particular presentation.
Just my $0.02
