It was the Hornady 140 grain boat tail spire point. It shot the best out of my rifle so that's what I went with. It killed my buck last year pretty clean, he only went 50 yards. Killed a whitetail doe this October, big pass through, devastating, only went 100 yards or so. I think elk are damn tough animals no doubt. I'm sure there are better bullets out there but I'm trying to sell this rifle so I don't really want to shoot it much more.
