I'd like to see that, seeing is believing. Who is shooting moose with a 223 or a 22CM? Send me link to that video I'd like to see it. I guess the moose is DRT also. Have you ever seen a moose in person up close, like dead on the ground?
There's a whole thread on rokslide. People are shooting literally everything with a 223. Grizzly, moose, walrus.

A bad shot is when you hit bonewith that tiny bullet and not rib cage. I was a big Berger fan until my wife made a bad shot @ 300ish with 270 WSM 140 Berger VLD she hit the Elk right in the knuckle it passed through the knuckle and stop without penetrating the rib cage. Had to chance the Elk for 2 hours finally killing it. It was awful she ended up shooting a rear leg off while it was running and it didn't end there, he kept going on two legs front back on opposite sides. I don't use anything but LRX and Accubonds anymore both open up quickly. I mean if you shot him in the guts or *** more than likely the chase is on. Still rather be using a bullet that's going to drive on through. Maybe you're that good of a marksman and you never have to experience a bad shot I hope not. But maybe it might just happen with that bull of a lifetime that would be

Thank god. You've been at it since 7am and seem to like belittling and insulting people. Not a way for a 30 day member to make any new friendly acquaintances. Just because someone doesn't like your opinion or agree with you doesn't make them a "leftist". The ignore button is up top so you can just wash your hands of it.
Yea the Author also doesn't tell you he shot his back leg off and how he cut the film when he's standing there for 5 minutes before he died ether. That lung damage wasn't nothing I'll show you some lung damage after Xmas. I just think it's a sad day in the hunting world when it comes to this, I would have more of an understanding if you couldn't afford to shoot anything else that would be a more acceptable. Good luckThere's a whole thread on rokslide. People are shooting literally everything with a 223. Grizzly, moose, walrus.
Here's a video with a 22arc on a moose. Pretty much par for the course with a non-CNS hit on a moose.
Video: Moose Hunting With the 22 ARC
The author wanted to field test the big-game capabilities of the 22 ARC, so he took it moose hunting in Alaska. Here's how it performed.
shoot straight !!!
My apologies have a lovely evening.
Also I guess the good part is I contributed $29 to the cause, when most on here hasn't contributed anything in years but bad information. Not saying mine is the gospel ether. Guess I shouldn't started drinking so early
Well said.
In the article the author wrote to accompany the video, he does talk about his poor second shot that went through 10" of hind quarter muscle, shattered the femur, and kept penetrating past that.Yea the Author also doesn't tell you he shot his back leg off and how he cut the film when he's standing there for 5 minutes before he died ether.

Son almost exclusively hunts with 6mm CM ises 103hr ELD-X one shot kills out to 400 metres
Thanks! I think one of the things that gets me going is that it seems like 95% of people that try the heavy for caliber match bullets in smaller diameters end up really liking them, and 95% of the "it's not enough gun" people have never tried them and are basing their position on, at best, experience with those cartridges using bullets that are nowhere near the top of the heap for performance. At worst, basing their position on emotion and conventional wisdom that they haven't investigated for themselves.
