Hard Hitting Bullet for Moose???
lokidog:
2 of 3 soft point 180 grains out of a 300 short mag went completely through my moose at 318 yards. The one recovered under the far side skin only lost 10 grains of weight.
:twocents:

That's surprising.
I do believe you - just surprising to me.
Curly:
Sounds like a good excuse for a new rifle. :tup:

No....that's what this one is for. I have a 45/70 and 450 Marlin that would get the job done too.....but range is limited. This is just another reason to work a load with the same rifle. Ordered 150 bucks worth of hammers in 214 gr and 227 gr to see what they do. Hopefully I draw a bear tag In The spring to try them out. If not I will have to get a fall bear before the hunt.
Damnimissed:
I think a 200gr A-Frame has about as good a chance of a pass-through as anything.
