Merits of 7mm Rem Mag Vs 338 Win Mag for long range Elk/Moose/Bear cartridge?

[remington jim]

In the interest of science here are two bullets recovered from bull moose. Different bulls, both TSX bullets, one .284, and one .338. Is that difference in bullet diameter meaningful? Who knows.

Nice Recoveries ! Which one penetrated further - Any idea ? RJ

I’ve had 2 338 Win mag rifles - one a M77 Ruger and the other was a Win M70 XTR and FOR SURE ! the 338 Win mags killed bears faster then any of my 7 Rem mags ever did . RJ

Ha Just Remembered I have an unused by me REM M700 338 Win Mag still in the SAFE !

Jim if God Forbid you had to get by on just one chambering from here out...what would it be?

Curious with the amount you've owned/used lol

I honestly can’t remember, but it would have been similar.
