very nice .

True, but the .303 is actually a great caliber (chambering).

Agreed. And out of an Enfield? For sure!

That's a lot of hamburger.

He estimates it weighed about 1,250 pounds or more.

Armed with his old British .303 with open sights

But...but...that can't be even close. Every year I hear guys say their 3 1/2 yr old ONTARIO moose weighted at least 1500lbs and how they NEEDED at .338 or magnum calibre! How could this be? Could they possibly be over estimating?

nice one. I am pretty sure more moose in canada have been taken with a 303 then any other round.

 

[Fall Guy]

Stunning. What a rack!

I sure appreciate the country fire and smoke sensation you get from reading this. Its how B&C animals were shot 80 years ago; thoughts on the larder and then realize its a monster.

Some big moose coming out of the Yukon this year....saw a picture of another that was 75" wide with a green score of 241, I think there was a 70+ came out of Shockey's camp earlier in the season as well. Quite the year....nice to see!
