RE: Moose-Elk Rifle Caliber Choice
 
The numbers that I posted are with a 270 grain bullet in the 375 and a 250 grain in the 338. The 338 velocity is 2700 while the 375 is 2690.

I can't say that I notice much difference in felt recoil although the 375 that I have used is about a pound heavier than the 338's that I had at the same time. The 375 H&H is just about at the end of my tolerance now that the shoulder is shot.:(

The .338 Win. Mag., or the .325 WSM. Good luck.

If the case is that you just want to add another, keep the .30-06 for when hunting Low and the .338 when hunting High!
