1 .70 calibre ball isn't deadly enough? Guys in the states use .45 RB's on them from their flinters. The odd guy uses his .62 smoothbore, usually with a .590" to .600" round ball & only 80gbr. 2F or less. Buddy of mine up here has shot a LOT of moose with his .75 cal. Sporting rifle. He now uses a .715" WW ball and .030" patch with 120gr. of 2F GOEX. He started off using 200gr.2F and reduced his charge, year after year trying to get a ball to stay inside a moose. When he had dropped his load to 120gr., he succeeded in keeping a ball inside the moose. Sounds like a lightly recoiling (respectively) pig load to me. |
