Default RE: 270 and Elk

ORIGINAL: skeeter 7MM

I personally like the Winchester XP3 it is made to take down large game and will travel through an elk like a RPG.
Anybody used these on game? or just what they read? I suspect since they've been out for a year now some have, just haven't seen to many average joe hunters(like most of us here)mention experiences on them above deer sized game. Just curious. Being a reloader myself not offered as a component(well at least thatI am aware of under the same name),I have not.
I've talked with a guy face to face who has used them and read a few dozen average joe reviews and all say if your rifle will shoot them tight they will put a fist sized hole in anything from deer, to hogs, to elk. I saw a photo of a heart shot elk that literaly had its heart blown in half.
