Trystan,

Actually the cartridges in the Swedish statistics included the .375 H&H, and a few even larger. But many (if not most) moose in Scandinavia are killed on drives, which makes bullet placement a little iffy, despite considerable practice on running-moose targets. The statistics also did not include any info on shot placement. But the considerable numbers of moose taken do indicate something--which is of course that if a hunting bullet penetrates and expands sufficiently, the animal dies quickly.
