[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 348272, member: 11717"] Chas, my guess is that EastHunter is from East Canada. I agree with with your overall assessment except when it comes to shooting moose. A 300 WM will sure get the job done, but a 338 WM will sure put a lot more of them down in their tracks than a 300. EastHunter, I looked at the Federal ammo site and checked the balisitcs of the 338 WM and 300 WM. Both are only good to about 450-500 yds because they run out of speed at those distance. The bullets need 1800 fps to expand and 400-500 yds is where they drop below that speed. If you want tio drop moose in their tracks, go with the 338 and who cares what looks you get. They can look at your dead moose. That's my $.02, US Mark [/QUOTE]
