Doubt any elk walking has ever had a 100# quarter... that would take a 1000# on the hoof bull... I've shot a lot of moose that did not come close to that.
I would expect a bull yielding 270# of boneless meat to have hind quarters in the almost 70# range. That does not relate to critters split through the spine, then cut in half. I am talking about hind quarters disarticulated at the hip...
