Default RE: Good Elk/Moose Gun

he shot my other friends 300 WSM With Managed recoil,BOSS CR., And A Limb Saver Recoil pad and he said it kicked way too much for him
He needs to take up crochet. Seriously if that combo kicked too hard then he is in trouble. He might want to look at a 7mm-08, .308, or 338 Federal.

Maybe he should look into a308 it not the most powerful round but it does shoot flat and would be accurate at 500 yds. A 30-06 doesnt have alot of recoil but but 500 yds might be a reach.
So a 308 is a good 500 yard elk and moose rifle but a 30-06 isn't?
