There has been many of moose shot with a standard 270win. So 270wsm should work fine. I will keep you posted on my deer and elk hunting this year with my newRemington 700xcr in 270wsm. I drew a doe deer and cow elk tag in my state.So far I have shot the factory 150gr. Winchester Power-Points and getting 1/2" groups at 100yds. I am going to try the Winchester Supreme with the 140gr. accru-bonds. In my area they don't have any Winchester XP3 in 270wsm yet. Keep us posted with the moose hunt using the 270wsm and good luck on the hunt.

Will a .270 wsm shooting 150gr XP3 bullets cleanly kill a big bull up to 350 yds if I do my part. Or Should I buy a new .300 win mag?
Thanks
If you have to ask...why would you use it? Overkill is always better than just enough! Take something that you have confidence in, not something you are asking questions about!Here we go again!
If you get to hunt moose on a daily basis...then feel free to experiment! I'm going on my first moose hunt next year and I'm not sure which rifle I'll be taking, but I'll promose you this,I won't be be asking if it is enough gun!

I have never used that bullet so I couldnt speak on its performance but the caliber will be fine if like you say, you do your part. It would be just as good as the 300 Mag. You might check out the 160 grain Nosler Partition as well.
