I’m in agreement with others that 6.5 Grendel would be pushing it for elk. A quick google search shows a 123gr Hornady SST doing 2580 at the muzzle. Just for reference, my dad takes his 300 win mag elk hunting and that slings a 180gr pill at 2950. Those two aren’t even in the same orbit in terms of muzzle energy.

If you are saying 6.5 Grendel is not enough for elk, you are not correct.
I didn’t say it wouldn’t kill one. I said he shouldn’t try to use it.
Kinda like a .22 on a whitetail. Will it kill it? Absolutely.
Do you have a really good chance of something bad happening?
Damn straight.
Not the wisest choice for an elk.
