Lots of swedes have used the 6,5x55 for moose. I have often wondered how long the moose ran before dropping.




This listing has been kicked around for many years. Not sure the original source of it.

I have never killed a moose but if interpolating results on elk and deer mean anything, I see no reason to doubt its accuracy.



I have seen that list and somehow it doesn`t make sence intirely..




I don't have much to gripe about pertaining to the calibers that have substantial representation. It's hard to make anything of those that are cited infrequently.

I've killed elk with the .375 H&H Mag, .30-06, 9.3x57, 6.5x55, 7x57 and .264 Win Mag and deer with many calibers from 6.5x55 to .375. To be honest, I can't say I've seen a significant difference between any of them. Hit right they drop or run a bit. Hit badly and they run a lot.

Years ago Finn Aagaard stated that he couldn't see much difference on medium game shot with the .375 and other common smaller calibers {.270, .30-06, etc}. He had vastly more experience than me, but I don't have any experience that would call his judgment on that score into question.
