The only ones I know of/about going 'smaller' are on here, and
That's pretty much what I see too. Last year WI did away with the last of the deer shotgun zones. Several people inquired about what rifle I thought they should buy and every one of them already had 300 mag on the brain.
I had the magumitis for a bit...as much as I like my .300 Win Mag, it don't kill anything any deader than my .270 and I'm pretty sure I could kill anything around here just as dead with a quarter bore, a 6mm or even a centerfire .22(I just haven't completely wrapped my head around the centerfire .22 yet, my dad has never liked anything smaller than a 6.5 for deer)
