[QUOTE="Wolf76, post: 1980347, member: 75779"] I think we actually agree more than we disagree. I look at any situation/gun choice as marginal, adequate, optimal. In this case the BULLET wasn't up to the task. A 300 WM can easily push heavy bullets fast because it has the powder capacity to do so. The 300s are more than adequate with the right bullet and placement. The big 33s just bring more to the party. [ATTACH type="full"]214227[/ATTACH] Attached is a factory partition load from nosler. It still has more than 2000 foot pounds of energy at the distance referenced. My guns all eat handloads and would give much better terminal ballistics. BTW: who the heck went on moose hunt with core lokts? IMO, very irresponsible. [/QUOTE]
