I have seen this bullet plow length wise through big mule deer. But since I haven't killed an elk with them my self I didn't recommend it. That is the difference.

If I have actual knowledge of the issue I will post on it. If all I have is something I read, or info someone told a friend, that told a friend. I don't blab it trying to make my self look like an expert. Do you see the difference? Ron
So, going off your experience. If I said a 460gr conical will kill deer. I'd be wrong, because I haven't done it? Are we to just throw out your experience as having no value?
