Take this with a grain of salt, but Winchester itself doesn't recommend the Ballistic Tip for elk. It does for deer, but not elk.

Accubond would be fine. Want a do-anything bullet, try a Partition. Of course the proviso is that it has to shoot well from YOUR gun.
180g is a good choice but I'd be comfortable with a 165g bullet as well if it was stout and shot well from my gun.
