Hmm. I have never even used a 270 to shoot an elk ( I like more power) but plenty of people have. If we are talking about a 300 blackout, seems like he would be fine out to a max of say 200 yards. It should still have about 1700 ft lbs at 200 yards. Yes he will have to pick his shots carefully but I can see it would work very well if he is careful about shot placement.
