If I was to hunt elk with the Creed, my first choice for elk would be a Partition, or one of the Barnes. That being said, I have loaded some 140 Speer Gold Dot bullets that I have killed several deer with and there is no doubt in my mind that they would work well on elk. Another real contender is the 140 Interlock. I would not feel under-equipped with any of these, but since I have two seven mags, I would probably not use my Creeds, nor .260s.
If that is the cartridge that you have, then use it, but it would not be the one to get the main nod out of my safe.
