[QUOTE="diriel, post: 543998, member: 26983"] RangerBrad, If a sawed off 12ga with 00 is somewhat punishing, then about the most I would even consider advising is a 300wm with a 208gr Amax using H1000 powder and Win brass with Win LR primers. I happen to know a bit about the type of shotgun you mention, so realistically 1400 yards on a moose may be a stretch sir. Believe me, a 15lb + 300wm loaded as stated above With-Out a Muzzle Brake can still be an attention getter when you squeeze one off. You did not mention your max desired weight, nor did you mention if a Muzzle Brake is ok, but on the M-B I am thinking that for hunting in social / semi-social settings the noise might be objectionable. I know that if my son or daughter were going to be with me on a hunt, I would not personally take a chance on subjecting them to the heavy blast associated with a Brake. Good luck sir, Gary [/QUOTE]
