I have used the 06 for years, never a problem. Son uses a 338....18 n magnum feaver.LOL I'd agree with wahnie....a 270/308 or 30-06 should fill the need. Most important thing is becoming good with what ever you use! 125lb daughter has learned to love the .270.Any of the above can be downloaded for a new shooter, then work up to hunting loads.
JMO, although the 30-30 has killed elk for years, it requires exact shot placement, I think I'd explore a little more gun.
Good luck
Dan
