Blaming the caliber is exactly like those that shoot a 30-06 with 130 or even 150 grain thin jacketed bullet and have poor performance, then say a 30-06 is not enough gun for elk.....
szihn: Where did you see me blaming the caliber? For the last 10 years I've hunted elk every year with a .50 caliber rifle and brought one home each year. .50 caliber rifles are all I've ever used and I've never seen a need to use a different caliber or said so.
What I said was, there are better projectiles for elk than a 177 grain round ball.
Would you dispute that?
