Just booked my first moose hunt, Newfoundland! This is on the heels of finishing my first Savage project; a 338-06 McGowan, SSS trigger and recoil lug, and my self-customized Boyd laminate/bedded stock. This has been a great project with much valuable research from this board. Still working on the 225gr Interbond and Interlock loads; anyone got a pet moose load? Yes I have now officially become a SavageHo; ordered a 25-06 barrel for the smaller chores.
