Looking for a little insight. I have been hunting a couple of years now for Whitetail in Alberta, and I have just received my first moose tag this year. I use a .308 with 150gr Core-lokts for Whitetails and have never had one travel more than 10 yards after the first shot. Do you feel this is sufficient for the moose?

The moose is relatively thin skinned and a 150 gr might work, but I would prefer something a bit heavier myself. A good quality 165 gr bullet will work (Supreme Fail Safe, or others) if you do not want to shoot 180 gr.
