One of my favorite stories of Bob's was about the .25-06--which he introduced by saying he was going elk hunting, and the only rifle in his rack he knew was sighted-in was a .25-06--with handloads featuring the 120-grain Speer Hot-Cor. So he went out and killed an elk with it, quite handily, despite the cartridge and bullet not being consider anywhere near adequate by most today.
Read tons of Bob and many others in that era. On that 25-06, I was at a SHOT show at the Sako booth and struck up a conversation with a passerby from Canada. He had a 25-06 and told me about dumping a large Moose. The range I won’t post, but suffice to say it was quite effective and impressive!
Bob probably was one of the big reasons why I got into TC’s and other handguns long ago. Like Bobby T. - I was a big fan. Many other great writers in that era, many passed. Glad we still have some quality writers who are very knowledgeable and straightforward.
