RE: Good All Around Gun ,From Antelope To Moose
ox,
Seems you ask this kind of question a lot. But ....
A .30-06 will NOT blow an antelope "to nothing" at the ranges you're speaking of. If you're looking for ONE rifle to hunt species from antelope to moose, it'd be awfully hard to beat the .30-06. It may be more than what's needed to kill an antelope, and while it doesn't have the sex appeal of the magnums, will certainly do in a moose.
I'd consider the .270 Win the minimum moose cartridge, anything above .30-06 on antelope is just making noise and considerably more than what it takes to handle one.
