I will, but only inside 75 yards.

I think you are a bit on the conservative side, but that is fine. I think you could stretch out to 150 yards with a 170 grain flat point and still have the necessary power to kill an elk. Anything inside that range would be a definite plus, anything outside that range would be very marginal.
