Good point. In the east we are spoiled. Did your damage control hunter use a standard Swift? The Rangers here use .223 for this task. Mr Cracker holds the standard Swift in low regard, probably why it wasn't very popular.
When you say boomer, you may misunderstand; I mean 30-06.
The magnums are not fun to shoot for sure. If you used an inferior round like the standard Swift, could you learn more?
Maybe even a .223?
