I'm actually quite amateur, that was my second year hunting them and was my first elk and yes, it was extremely difficult. however my AR is no heavier than the weatherby but is much shorter and easier to pack in the woods so it would actually make things a little easier on me. as I said, there are oportunities for both long and short range hunting so if there the elk where in a place requiring long shots I would take the weatherby again. for short range, I think the 6.5 would be easier.
