.30/378, .338 Lapua, .300 Wby, .300 RUM... Pffffftt! 1000 yds.... Give me a break!!
Hell, a REAL hunter only needs a .30-30. File off the front sights. Grease up the barrel really good with Vaseline. Sneak up behind your moose or elk or grizzly, shove the barrel about a foot-and-a-half up his azz, pull the trigger, and you're done. Nuttin' to it. No sightin' in. No muzzle blast. No walkin' 3/4 of a mile from where you shot all the way out to where the dead animal lays.
Or you can leave the front sight on and use it like a Butt-Out when you pull it out.
LOL I like the butt out comment. To be honest the farthest I have shot game is 250 and most are more like 25 yards or less. He offered to let me shoot at his range with his guns so I figured it would be fun to try it out and see what all the real long range magnum shooting buzz is about. I think it goes to 1300 or something around there.
