Johnny Guest,

Thanks for your insights. I have talked to a few guys who have taken longer shots through the shoulders of moose using 338's and have been impressed. I've yet to talk to anyone who has done it with a 30 caliber.
I'm not a big bore boy at all, so I don't have a clue really (just theory). If I can confirm that a 300WSM/300WM can do it, I may prefer it to the heavier recoiling 338WM.

Thanks,

Mike
