[QUOTE="Brad Quarnberg, post: 2960092, member: 107866"] With the right bullet Partition or Grand Slam) and short placement/distance, it'll work. Having taken many Alaska Moose, they are big, especially a mature bull. I've seen them take several 338 win mag rounds to the boiler room before going down. If that is all you have, is what you feel the most comfortable and confident shooting, are willing to keep your shots short distance, then it will work. That said, although I have hunted and harvested a few elk with my 270, my preference is at least a 30 cal in a magnum (I hunt with a 300 WSM 190 bullets for elk in most cases, but moose my go to is my 325 WSM with a 200gr bullet). Hunting in AK or Canada means there is a chance you could run into a grizzly, and for me, I would want something bigger with heavier bullets, or at least have someone with me shooting something bigger.
