[QUOTE="AKRyan, post: 995574, member: 80550"] So I did it. I live in Alaska and love to hunt. obviously Alaska is famous for moose. (& some other stuff) So about 8 months ago I sold a 300 RUM not being a fan of the recoil, cost of ammo, etc etc. So this year I packed the old 30-06 into the woods. Guess what else? there's moose meat in the freezer. One shot from 475 yrds and the little 06 with it's pointy bullet did the job. I don't regret parting ways with that RUM one bit. THe reason I bother posting this is because I have heard from many that "you got to have that magnum" to hunt in Alaska. No, you really don't. My 2 daughters are going this coming year and they, like their Mom will be carrying rifles chambered in 270 Win. Ill let everyone know how well their caribou die in a little less than a year. Enjoy your hunting everyone, I sure did & my shoulder don't hurt. [/QUOTE]
