Default 8mm Mag

Would you consider a 8mm Mag a good gun for moose and elk, maybe a grizzly. If not, any other good choices??

Kona,
The 8mm rem mag is a great alround elk,moose and grizzly gun(I said Griz not black bear)
The problem is the 8mm never caught on here in the states,great gun matches the .338 win mag in power,also the avalibility of ammo is poor and exspensive.If you handload you make this gun a real shooter with 200 gr noslers and no elk or moose can with stand.

It is an awesome gun IMO. Wish there were more of them around. Should do anything in North america just fine.

The 8mm Rem. Mag. is a excellent round if you handload. Good luck.
