If you really want my honest opinion, I think you need to get another gun. if you are wanting a gun that you will use for elk and moose, then I would say buy a gun that really fits those needs, such as a 300 or 338 mag (bolt action) With that said, if you are on a limited budget and all you have are the 2 options you mentioned, and if that is truely all you have, then I would have to say that you are still in a gray area and I would not honestly not recommend either one for elk and moose. I will not go into the numerous debates I have had which argued about all the various calibers and weapons that can kill and elk or moose (yes even a .22 can kill an elk or moose), but I am a serious believer that you need to go that extra step to find the best fit instead of just trying to make something work. All I want to say is that in my honest opinion your 2 guns may not be the best fit for what you need. Just my $0.02
