2. It is illegal to use any bullet except the 180 grain Nosler Partition, the 150 grain Sierra Game King, or any 220 grain round nose. H4350 is the only legal powder if you hand load.

3. It is illegal to shoot said rifle from a bench except for 25 shots per year. No limit on practice from field positions.

4. To buy a hunting license, it is required to dry fire at least one hour per week for 52 weeks.

5. For elephant, it is illegal to use any cartridge except the .375 H&H with 300 grain bullets.

I'm betting that, if such a law were passed, the success on big game would improve and perhaps fewer hunters would be injured by dangerous game.

You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.
