Which gun would you take?

Going on a 14 day float trip for moose. Which gun would you take? 300WM with a Nightforce NX8 2.5-20 or a Ruger Guide Gun 375 Ruger with a Trijicon 1-6.

Forgot to mention this is unguided, the 375 is for possible bear protection.

300 WSM is fine for any Griz you come across. In AK, Griz get hunted so they tend to avoid people. 300 better for longer shots on Moose.

Whichever one shoots smoothest in your hands

Take the 375. That’s a great setup for moose and bear, especially for float hunts where you may very well come around a bend into a bull.

My float hunt gun is a 375HH, It’s almost exclusively purposed for float hunts, lower power optic, shorter barrel. Nice and handy for tossing in the raft or climbing steep banks for a better view. I think I’ve taken like 7 bulls and 3 bears with that gun.

I hunt a lot with a 30-06 and a 308 but if a float hunt is what’s happening, I grab that 375. 260g Accubonds are an excellent choice for moose with a 375.
