[QUOTE="D$tring, post: 2383987, member: 114263"] My daughter killed her moose with a 6.5-284 and 140 Hybrid at 180 yards. My oldest son killed his with 6.5 PRC and 156 EOL at 212 yards. Both bulls DRT. Hunting partner killed a bull elk last year well past your friends intended range with 6.5-284 with 143 ELDX also DRT. I’ve killed plenty with 7s and 30 cal of various flavors. All kill same amount of dead. We are blessed with choices and todays modern bullet construction really allows us to shoot smaller caliber rifles with less recoil which tends to help with accuracy way out there, especially while practicing. I would feel comfortable with anything 6.5 and up for what he wants. [/QUOTE]
