In East Texas back in the 60's-early 70s, anything over a 30-30 or 6mm Remington was "considered to be a magnum or magnum Like". I only remember one .270 and one .243 in camp. We had a lot of older gents back then too, remember, who had survived the Great Depression. They would get apoplectic about bloodshot/ruined meat! They considered the .22LR, .22 Magnum , 22 Hornet "about right! ha I miss those old guys...:) Oh yeah, the .270 guy was told "flat out"...."that's too fast for the woods and tears up too much meat". They were also "highly opinionated".
