[QUOTE="captainmike73, post: 224955, member: 12344"] I Hunt Moose and Caribou in Alaska using a 340 weatherby. The Rifle is a remington 700 with 24" shillen 5-1/2 barrell. The Rifle is very accurate at the bench. It has taken moose down with one shot at 400 yards and 300 yards. I use only Barnes Bullets. For Caribou I'm loading 175 X pushing 3250 FPS using 84 grains of IMR4350. My moose load is 84 grains of H-4831 I think that is going over 2900fps. (haven't chroned that one lately). This year I'm using the 185 and 210 triple shocks. I'm sure they'll do the job nice a neat. There Seems to be a lot of new fancy 338's running around but the 340 has proved it self many of times for me. no reason to fix somthing thats not broke. What ever you decide use Barnes bullets.
