I know that you are new here. We do have a rifle sub-forum for rifle discussions.
Coton, it's true that guys often have talked about rifles and cartridges when sitting around the campfire, and still do. But Mr.Barnard seems to be trying to clue you in on the more recent metamorphosis - focus on fat girls, bikers in spandex and LEOs.
You know, you have a legit point. We should get rid of sub forums altogether since anything goes around the campfire.

I don't know about any legit in that regard, but at times a perusal of this place can be be boggling. And, the difference between the topics/chatter on here vs. the talk we experience sitting around the fire at our SW "get to-gethers" is striking. You should try that - you would be welcomed.

Ive been hunting with my Ruger Hawkeye for over ten years and love it. I wouldn’t think twice about shooting it at 300 yards. People refer to it as a woods rifle and that is a bad title for a caliber these days. Everyone wants a rifle to shoot a thousand yards but probably won’t get close to that. It’s a good caliber that leaves a blood trail if needed and doesn’t tear up a bunch meat. I like it.

I have found the 358 Win easy to load for. It gets the job done without any fuss. It's a humble cartridge that works on bears at 265yds and beyond.
