Never had any issues with it on moose, either, I did recover one in the hide, on the offside, on a partial quartering shot on a moose, hit a rib in and a rib out on that one, 11-1200lb bull, only one I have ever recovered, from that gun. That bullet has never given me a hint of a reason to change from it.
Exactly, my son has taken more game with this bullet, moose to yotes and I tell ya it's a deadly combination, after kicking around with my 7mm STW for years
I would if I was in the market buy a nice lefty rifle in the 7-08 and never look back....ever.
