"A hunter should not choose the cal, cartridge, and bullet that will kill an an animal when everything is right; rather, he should choose ones that will kill the most efficiently when everything goes wrong"

Got this off another post and kinda thought it fits here. Just cause something will work doesn't mean it shoudl be done.

But what the heck I "killed" a elk one time with a 22 stinger. I had shot the neck bone into with a 30-06 but it was still breathing when I got up to it. So there ya go a .22 CCI Stinger can kill a elk. even witha a 1 1/2 inch barrel American Arms. LOL.
