Just finished a Field and Stream Richard Mann article where he stated he will never use a 30-06 because of an obnoxious uncle who incessantly proclaimed the 06 to be the end all, be all. I can't think of a cartridge that I let another person ruin for me. How 'bout y'all?
I wouldn’t say anyone ruined a cartridge for me, but incessantly bringing them up when specifically not asked about them is kinda nauseating.
For instance, when someone is asking about a .243, and only a .243, there’s always a few who have to let everyone know the 7-08 is a better choice, ( 7-08 Tourette’s is what I call it ). Kinda made me overlook a 7-08 on purpose.
The 6.5 CM, for the same reasons. I’d rather have any other .264.
The .270, I just can’t do it. I can’t. I could never mention an ‘06 without hearing about it. Plus it’s gay.
