Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Savage Collectors 2018 Savage Kill Page

Thanks guys! I usually use a .308 or 7x57 for moose but I got this savage earlier this fall for 100$ and just had an urge to fill the freezer with it. (we don't have a freezer, we hang till winter and then thaw and butcher. This guy was frozen solid about 4 days after I got it) This is an average/small moose for around here; body and antlers. Exceptional eating! Called it in to the cabin; showed up late in the evening it was dark. So I called in the morning he came in again. I was in my pajamas I know this is controversial but I have been taken the past few years by the neck shot. If I am close, like under 100 yds, and the situation is good, like lots of opportunity for a follow up shot, (and you're a good shot and know your anatomy) the neck shot at the base of the skull is quite spectacular. I won't recommend it but this is how this guy went down.

Happy hunting!
