Ya'll don't need no high caliber magnum to kill a elk.
You don't need skill either, but it sure helps. Seen too many guys who road hunt with big bulls in the back.

I shot my fair share of Elk with my 270 growing up, but still prefer the high cal. magnums now. If I was getting ready to go on an Elk hunt and buying a gun to do so, I'd lean towards the high cals (IMO). Like I mentioned above, don't need skill, don't need a high cal. weapon, but both sure help.
