In Episode 2.5, we sit down with the inventor of the Moses cartridge to talk about the story behind the round and the experience that led to its creation.

We cover his military background, time in the field as a hunter, and how those experiences shaped the idea for a more efficient cartridge design. The conversation moves through the different calibers and brass case families in the Moses lineup, including what’s available now and what’s planned for the future.

We also talk about performance topics like speed, bullet weight, powder charge, and how the Moses cartridges compare to other rounds in similar calibers. The focus stays on overall efficiency and practical use rather than deep technical breakdowns.

Along the way, we discuss the use of NATO brass across the cartridge families, how that makes brass easier to source, and touch on processes like hydroforming. As usual, the conversation drifts off topic here and there, making for a relaxed and honest discussion about shooting, design, and real-world experience.
