Your post suggests that the 7mm-08 is an adequate choice.
Adequate? Absolutely! It also might suggest that moose can readily absorb a pretty good punch and are deserving of tough bullets, especially in a lighter caliber like the little 7.
(The XFB tipped the animal over on impact since it broke big bones in both shoulders which obviously took his pins out. The rest of the bullets were each one of three or four bullets that the respective animals took while on their feet.)
