Best moose rifle for 300 plus yards

My wife used a 139gr Hornady in her 7wby doing 3375fps and shot it through an elk at 250 yards. Those old interlocks work great. We didn’t have enough bullet left over for a picture. Some of it left the far side but not all
Hornaday interlock was the go-to bullet for Weatherby until hype and consumer demand changed that. In the almost 50 years I've used them nothing has walked away, nothing went more than 50 feet, ony had to take a second shot once and that was my fault. Thay can and do sometimes come apart, but as stated many times before, at what point of the animals death did the bullet fail! Except for some cast bullets, Hornaday is the only thing in my cupboard. Congrats to the wife.
PS. No man was ever shot by his wife while he was doing housework. ;)
