Just to add, .308s are real popular around here in New England as deer rifles, and get used as moose guns too. Moose hunting is lottery-draw in New Hampshire, and I know many deer hunters who put in "just cause" and then use their deer guns to kill a moose.
Moose hunting as I understand it is a close-range affair, typically within 100 yards. They like to live in swampy, wet, dense places. A .308 with something like a 165gr Nosler Partition would work fine IMO. Actually, I think you'll find more than a few killed each season with plain old 170gr .30-30s too...
