Alaska moose I got last week on opening day (Sept 15). Limited quota area (draw) with about 1% odds of drawing. I've drawn it twice in the past 3 years. .264 Win Mag with 140 Partitions scooting along about 3,050 fps. Could have taken my Whelen but I used that on my last moose. 80 yd shot from about 35 feet up in a spruce tree. My buddy called him right in early in the morning. Shot at 6:30 - all meat packed back to camp (5 trip for each of us, 400 yds to the river) by 5:30 pm. 110# hind quarters. Probably a 3.5 or 4.5 y.o. moose. Only one horn as he busted the other off fighting - would have loved to seen the moose that kicked his butt.
