RA,
I'm going to try the 150s. I just need to be quiet about it around my hunting buddies as I would be banished if they realized I was shooting a bullet less than 200 grains

. Seriously though, I hunt with 2 other guys and we all carried .338 win mags for years. Hell I was the first to buy one and they served us well for many moose and many years. Problem is they all had muzzle brakes on them and I just got sick of wrecking my hearing and dropped down to a 7 mm rem mag. I have only killed 1 bull moose, 2 caribou and 2 antelope so far with it ( all 1 shot drop in your tracks shots ) but I am rapidly becoming very attached to that rifle. The reality is killing a moose is like shooting a log skidder in the tire, punch a hole through it and watch it deflate ! I now realize you don't need a huge bullet to rip through a moose, just a real good one.
