I’ve passed through elk at 385-440 gr, never had to go heavier. Missed yardage estimation is one of the leading causes of poor shots, the extra speed helps a fair bit. If you always hunt from a stand or blind and never shoot past 35yrds you could go as heavy as makes sense. I like to keep my speed around 285+ fps, so I adjust arrow weight to what allows for that.
