Default RE: Recommended .300 Win Mag Ammo?

I've used both Winchester Premium Failsafe and Winchester Premium Accubond, 180 gr. .300 WM to bring down Elk quickly and effectively.
Last late season I dropped a large Cow Elk at 300 yards hitting and breaking her right front upper leg with Winchester Premium Accubond withthat one bullet also taking out both lungs. She labored to go no more than 30 yards before rowing over dead.
That tells me after passing through the heavy bone it had considerable ballistic force to turn the lungs into a consistency of strawberry jam. I'm planning to stick with the Accubonds for the forseeable future fo Elk.
