Deer 308win 150gr Winchester power point.
Moose 308win 165gr Federal trophy bonded bear claw.
We never get adult Moose tags so Sako A7.30-06 with Winchester Deer Season XP 150 gr or Federal 150 gr Trophy Copper for calf and Deer.
I will use use my Sako A7 7mm Rem Mag if we get adult Moose tags with 175 gr Federal Trophy Bonded Bear Claw.
Not sure if we will ever hunt moose again in this province - just seems like a big pain in the #$% for the distance you have to travel to ensure decent tags. If we ever go again the 35 Whelen will be on deck with either 250 grain partitions or 225 grain accubonds.
For deer i am partial to my 260 rem shooting 125 grain partitions.
