Well, I just got my elk back from the butcher. I used Jeff up in Navarre Coulee. The summer sausage is awesome! It goes really well with beer! 
 He found a broadhead in her shoulder AND what looked like a .24 caliber bullet in her as well. I guess it took the power of the ole .270 to finally put the lady down.

I shot her with my .270 with 130grain Hornady Interbond bullets. Double lung shot through the rib cage so nearly no spoiled meat! She made it about 70 yards from where I hit her.

that can't be right... .270's can't kill elk!  i read it on the interwebs!     

srlsy, nice cow!  my first elk was a cow i popped with my .270 when i was 15.  unlike you, however, she was standing on a fire road at the shot, then rolled 150 yards straight down a canyon!
