I am not a fan of the 308, but if you already have one that you are used to and feel comfortable and confident with, stick with it unless you just want to buy a new gun.
The 308 with 165 to 180 grain bullets will be more than enough for either species if you place your shots properly.
I have shoot 1 moose, Newfoundland and 2 caribou, Newfoundland and Nunavut.

What is the twist rate on your 308? Not that it matters a lot under 100y. I would listen to dawaba too, he seems to have the requisite experience, and nice pictures to prove it.
