Any man who says the 06 is a marginal moose round best not repeat that in a bar in Cornerbrook.Around here more guys use the 06 than any other caliber and my wifes grandfather use to shoot them with a .44 from his snowshoes and never lost an animal. Lets be straight up the biggest problem is not caliber but the fact that alot of guys can`t hit the side of a barn at 100 yards.
