7mm-08 factory loads for moose

We have had outstanding success with Barnes 120 TTSX, Berger VLD 140's and 140 grain Accubonds out of my lady's Tikka. No moose but plenty of elk and big mature mule deer out to 350 yards. All of them have just flattened animals and all of these bullet designs have worked very well in different situations. The Barnes have been my personal favorites for velocity and the ranges she is comfortable with. The Bergers have had the most dramatic effect for close shots and longer distance. Her longest shot on her last mature bull was 352 yards with the VLD and he took two steps and plowed snow. Choose the bullet you like that's accurate, keep your distance reasonable and practice and you'll be crushing any moose that wants to play the game!
