Keep the shots close and get perfect arrow flight and it will be plenty on all but the moose. I would think it is enough for moose, but a good 2 blade and a tad more weight would not hurt, ya ever see a moose rib? Shawn

Stay out of the Big Bones and it should be just fine as is.
For me I would up the weight and go to a 2 blade, but I do that for everything.

I believe in a good 2 blade for everything. I'm not sure about moose but get inside of 20 yds. and take good shots, you won't have any worries

Mike,
I will be shooting a 49# @ 28" bow with 160 grain BH. I shoot two blade heads. I have been told it will do just fine for caribou.
