Three of the guys from camp went out for some meat and came upon a good bull. Two shot their 7RM and a 444 into the Moose which sauntered into a nearby lake. Buddy no3. fires once with his 250 Savage and drops the Moose in about three feet of water. Would the Moose have gone down anyway? Probably, is the 250 Savage the better Moose cartridge? Not likely but that little rifle a 340 Savage in the hands of a local accounted for untold numbers of Moose, even more caribou and several brown and polar bears. This in addition to keeping most of the village in seal skins. Not sure about walrus but most likely some of them too.

Would the Swede be my first choice? Probably not but might be my second choice.
