Of course it could work but isnt that a pointless subject in this state?  .270 is the smallest caliber you can use for elk in this state isnt it?

.24 caliber is the smallest legal caliber for elk in Washington.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

At 200 yards the 120 grain Nosler Partition load from Federal has 1470 ft/lbs of energy.  Personally, I think that might kind of hurt.
