[QUOTE="NorthernWhitetails, post: 1378952, member: 42810"] Had a client this fall show up for Moose here in Northern Maine, he didnt want the hassle of travel With a gun in todays airport environment. I told him, we had lots of guns, so offered him a 35 Whelen for woods work, and a .270 for bog hunting. He thought the 270 was way toooo lite for moose, but I assured him that was not the case if he did his part. He wound up filling the freezer the last day at 373 yds with the 270 , shooting 150gr Nosler Accubond LR bullets @ 2900fps. He hit it high shoulder and folded it right up with one shot.......... his comment when it was a done deal, " I thought it would require at least a 300 Magnum to make that shot " he went home and purchased The exact rifle we lent him, loaded up some ABLR bullets and promtly dispatched a 6pt Bull Elk with the identical results [/QUOTE]
