[QUOTE="orifdoc, post: 2173927, member: 115070"] Moose are actually pretty easy to kill. With a .308, I'd be looking for a true broadside and I'd go right behind the shoulder. The vital zone is enormous. If you are close, and using a tough bullet, you could attempt quartering shots, but the shoulder is pretty stout on those critters. I like the TTSX a ton, but in the .308, it's probably a bit on the slow side for great expansion. A partition or even better a Swift A-frame would also be OK, if you can get them to shoot. My buddies use .308 on eland in Africa with zero hesitation, and they're tougher to kill and bigger than a moose. [/QUOTE]
