Default .300 Win Mag elk load...Hornady?Win?Fed?

I've been shooting standard 180 gr core lokts in my .300 win and have not been impressed w/ the results from the last two elk I've taken. I am looking at Hornady's 180 gr spire point heavy magnum which sounds like a very hot load, Winchester Failsafe in 180 gr, or Federal Nosler Partitions in a 200 gr load which also sounds like a hot load. The only use this rifle sees is elk so I don't need a multi-purpose round. I know final say comes down to accuracy but I have been leaning towards Hornady due to price and ballistics but have been unable to hear any feedback on the heavy magnum load. I have a few buddies that have been shooting the failsafes and both w/ good results but if I'm going to make a switch I want the best round I can find w/in reason. Any input appreciated.
