Default Enough Gun ?

My question is concerning using a 308 Win. to hunt elk. The reason I ask is that this is what my "favorite" hunting rifle is chambered for. I have hunted deer (white tail and mule) since about 1964, I have never hunted elk before.

I have 2 other choices. A 300 Win. Mag. and a 338 Win. Mag. I took the 300 Win. Mag. to Montana a few times hunting mule deer. I have shot the 338 only at the range. Recoil is not an issue. All 3 rifles are very accurate, with very good triggers and excellent glass.

I am looking for candid advice on which I should take.
