I happen to know - well, it's second-hand anyway- that a 338 Win Mag is perfectly capable of 'laming' a big bear without killing it, at least not before its winter hibernation………

And I happen to know - first-hand this time blush - that a 375 H&H, even in the hands of one not perfectly "slickety-slick", can be used to bore more than one magazine's worth of holes in a relatively small bear…….

So, therefore, a 30-06 must not be much good, Phil Shoemaker's evidence notwithstanding……he must just be lucky…

…….or perhaps being 'good' matters more than we want to believe. wink
