Rifle, cartridge, bullet ?

Bergara B-14 Hunter in .270. Hornady Super performance SST 130 gr. Yes, lots of people say .270 isn’t enough gun, 130 gr is too light. Works for me.

I’ve killed elk previously with my .270 but with 130 gr Core-Lokts. Have now recovered some of each. This bullet did shed more weight than the Core-lokts. But we did gutless on this guy so I don’t have any info on internal damage. My second shot passed through both shoulder blades. Seems adequate for the ranges I typically shoot.
