Guest bronco_mudder Posted September 11, 2005 Report Share Posted September 11, 2005 Here is what I set up to use for moose hunting this year. A Sako TRG-S, in .338 Lapua Its topped off with a Zeiss Conquest 3.5-10 X 44, in Leupold rings, and I'll be sending 250 grain Hornady's down the tube pushed by H-1000. That big gas tank will be devastating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted September 11, 2005 Report Share Posted September 11, 2005 Re: Moose hunting rig Nice rig! Isint it a tad on the heavy side for moose hunting? The ammo on the buttstock must weigh 2 pounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't be using the bi-pod on the moose hunt, so that will reduce the weight somewhat. Actually this rifle, before putting the ammo on the stock, weighs less than my Tikka 695 7mm Rem mag. Also weight isn't a big issue, we hunt mainly from lake shores, that we pull up our canoe on, and call, or sit and wait in known feeding areas, as well as calling from tree stand set ups. Honestly the furthest we go from camp would be 1.5 miles, and that includes a 1 mile canoe ride, it's not real tough hunting where we go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun_300 Posted September 11, 2005 Report Share Posted September 11, 2005 Re: Moose hunting rig Yeah I think that'd have NO problem at all taking down a moose. It probably gives the ol shoulder quite a jolt too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
