Before I was enlightened to the fact that elk had armor I killed more than a few elk with a 7mm Rem mag shooting 154 hornady Interlock flat base spire points. All the bullets you are talking about will do just fine (unless you find an armor plated elk).

What you need is freezer wrap!

enjoy your hunt
