Hey guys was looking for some Input. Hoping to get some moose hunt in this year. Would be my first time was wondering if a 308 with 180 grain would take a moose down. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Absolutely it will.
...No enterprise is more likely to succeed than one concealed from the enemy until it is ripe for execution...
If you want the prime bush, follow the Dawg...
Not a chance. The bullet will likely just barely penetrate the skin, and the moose will become enraged. Only a magnum can kill a moose
I won't always be young, but I can be immature forever
Are you kidding me??? a 308 your nuts! lol
you will be fine, burry one in the lungs and it will die!
I watched a video a while ago of a kid making a clean kill on an elk with a .243..shot placement is key, whether it's a .308 or .338
Shot placement is key,,,, but .. if you put a 338 210 TTSX on a moose shoulder it will brake it and kill the moose,,,, if you do the same with a 308 on a big bull it can pancake on the shoulder with little effect.
Circa 1975 and a cranker bull.... Savage 99m in .284 .... 7 rounds on shoulder moose still standing....
yes shot palcement is key, but a 338 gives you more places......
308 is fine dropped a few moose with it....
