My hunting buddy, Bert, uses nothing but his "little" Rem 600 in 358 Winchester for everything up here very efficiently. He bought a Husqvarna 94 in 6.5X55 for his wife to hunt with more than 40 years ago. Someone had sporterized the stock, shortened the barrel to 22 inches, and had it drilled and tapped for scope bases. We put an old Weaver K4 on it in Weaver rings.
We sighted it in a week before heading out on a hunt. The load was a 140 gr Partition ahead of a case full of the old H4831, and IIRC it shot into a bit under three inches at 200 yards. His wife killed a huge moose with a single shot on the second day of the hunt.
She eventually gave the rifle to one of their grandsons, and he is still using the same load with current H4831.

Exactly why I bought this rifle, I have a cz557 in .308 I was going to use but it’s to pretty and heavy to pack around. This guy is light AF and accurate AF
