Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles 25-06 Performance on Elk & Moose?

I don't know anyone who uses a 270 who doesn't much prefer heavier bullets when it comes to moose.



This 140 A-Frame struck a moose behind the right front leg, and stopped in the heavy muscle of the left shoulder. A 130 Core-lokt bullet would undoubtedly have worked as well on that particular shot presentation, or a 100 grain 243, a 55 FMJ 223, etc, but a few inches forward could easily change the money I'd play on the shot. Moose aren't hard to kill, (not to be confused with being 'soft targets'.)
