He and his guides liked to exchange info on what rifles and bullets their clients used, and the results, and since those clients took around 30 elk a year, I thought this might be statistically valid info. So I asked him what cartridge he thought was a good minimum for elk, and he said, "Two-fifty-seven."

I asked, "Roberts or Weatherby?"

He said, "Either one!"

Although the 257 Roberts is my favorite cartridge I always thought it was a little on the light side for elk. Maybe I'm wrong.

If you reload, there's no such thing as an obsolete cartridge.

Once you render an opinion, you open yourself up to criticism.
