I shoot 185 berger classic hunters out my -06 at the same velocity as your 308. They are devastating on deer, absolutely devastating. Haven't shot at an elk with them yet, hopefully this fall.
My brother dropped a bull with 175 hunter vld's out of his 300wsm a few years ago. Pleased with that...
You gotta have a different mindset to joyfully hunt these units. Treat it as an adventure and don't watch any TV or YouTube elk hunts prior to going. Get a deer, bear, and wolf tag in addition to your elk. There's guys/clients that do well every year but they earned it. We've killed 2 bulls, 2...
Wife drew a limited quota tag in the random. Its a unit my brother killed a bull in 2020, first time there. So feeling good about that.

Ford updated the exhaust manifold on the later 3.5s to utilize more bolt holes in the cylinder head. These bolt holes are existing, just un used on the older trucks. So you can upgrade to Fords new ones or go with the BD diesel setup

If reliability is your larger deciding factor, go with less turbos and electrical junk everytime. No matter the brand.
Yes they run good. Yes they may last a long time. But there's more things to go wrong, more things to leak, more complexity to diagnose and repair.

Wall tent shop quality is great. Get 2 doors, like stated above. I also read somewhere, someone recommended the stove jack be in a wall instead of the roof.

The guys that use the returned tag system would of rather this not get revealed on a forum. However, most desirable tags won't come up on the list anyhow.

I ate tag soup this year, but had to follow a prick in a raptor on way home with a big 5 point stood up in the bed thru 1 lane construction for miles on the intersate. Lol
