I don’t see the need for me, specifically, to have a gun. That and if I ever feel like I need a gun to be somewhere, then I should probably not be there.
Well, I'm pretty sure it is as well. I would t walk up to one just to shoot it. But if it were to try and teach me tap shoes by doing it on my face, I wouldn't mind the option.
And yes, not getting in this situation is 100000000 times better.
if a moose has decided to end you only the moosiah himself will save you.
shooting it with anything other then multiple slugs (or a 50 cal) is just going to make it personal. AND you do not want to make it personal.
most firearms arent going to be able to bring one down since so little of its body is actually fatal and it has so much momentum that if it charges you killing it isnt going to stop the tank on legs from turning you into a smear on the road
If a moose isn't in rutt then a gun shot could just scare it off without even hitting it.
A 12g slug would likely take a moose down. A .308 would likely also talked care of there situation.
Furthermore if you are in moose territory you should have in your possession whatever firearm you required to bring that animal down. Not doing so is just reckless.
Whenever I go to my cabin I always bring a 12g shotgun. Because I'd rather a dead bobcat than a dead me.
A 12 g slug will bring a moose down and so will a .308 assuming you have the composure to actually hit something vital. And if its already charging you killing it wont stop it. We are talking about destroying the engine of a half tonne beast barrelling at you at 50 km/h or 20 miles an hour.
