Default Elk: Recommend .270 or 30/06 hot/flat-shooting ammo?

Hey everybody....

Listen, I've got a couple of 30-30 94s, a .270 Remington 760 pump and a 30-06 Remington bolt gun (Springfield A3 sporter).

Don't see moose, bear or elk popping up in my life typically, though I've recently been given an open invite to join my friends in Colorado on their annual elk hunt. They claim 400-500yd canyon shots not uncommon.

Don't really need to buy a 7mm Rem mag or 300 Rem mag, as they would'nt get used much. Thought I'd consider some of the hotter .270 or 30-06 loads out there (Hornady)

Any recommendations from experience?
