Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game 308 Winchester for 1000 lb Moose at 50-300 yard range: What Bullet and Why?

A friend uses a 308Win on moose and has shot quite a few of them. A core lockt 180gr or a Hornaday 180gr at 2550fps seems to do the trick. Shots are normally inside 200yds with the most under 100yds. A 308Win needs nothing special for bullets but a 168gr TSX-BT may offer a bit more ranging ability. I use a 200gr AB in an 06 at 2625fps , so if you can get 2500fps out of this bullet i think it would be excellant on moose.
