RE: What is the best gun for moose and elk
I'm not saying that big lead is a crutch for poor shot placement at all. It doesn't matter how big the bullet is if the bullet doesn't hit a vital organ. If a man can't shoot his gun then, you're right, he shouldn't be out there in the first place.
I am just saying that I personally would rather send a 300 grain, .358 or .375 bullet his way as opposed to a 180 or 200 grain .308 bullet if a "sticky situation" arose.
