What do you use for hunting Deer, Moose

[migrant hunter]

Sory, but you are boring. Yes an 06 will kill anything from deer to moose, but this is a gun nuts site and we don't need that kind of "sensible" attitude here!

In the past few years I've hunted deer with

.223
7RM
.300WSM
.375 Ruger
.45 Colt

In the past few years I've hunted moose with

.30-06 when hunting open areas or exploring new places, .32spl for white tails in the alder/cedar swamps and riding in the canoe duck hunting and as a back up for moose maybe, if it likes the hornady leverevolution stuff.

[Calum]

I've been using a 270 Win for years, but have decided to build a 338 Win Mag for fun.

I use a 35 Whelen 7600 "carbine" loaded up with 250gr bullets. Knocks anything down with authority, and not bad in recoil either. By far my favorite close range gun. I actually sold my 45/70 Guide Gun when I purchased this one, it handles just as quick and retains a lot more energy at further ranges if needed. IMO this is one of the best "all in one" gun/caliber for central/eastern Canada big game hunting.

X2
225Gr Bear Claws.........

 

[woodchopper]

300WM for moose
25-06 for deer

different critters those 2

 

[Yehen]

don't think 7.62 x 39 would be a very popular moose calibre.

 

[Calum]

don't think 7.62 x 39 would be a very popular moose calibre.

If one is shooting at a Moose peeking in their kitchen window then perhaps...

 

[gibblewabble]

30-06 165gr bullets for almost everything, I pull out the 30-30 for wandering in the thick stuff around here, but this year I am going 7mm RM just cause I have always wanted one. Sold off a bunch of rifles when the long gun BS came in and now it is time to start rebuilding the stockpile.

 

[Wissem70]

300 WSM for Moose
12Gauge & 100gr. Broadheads for Deer
