I always enjoyed reading Elmer.

In the above referenced Gun Notes, it seems that he based his post-war opinions on pre-war data. In 1982 he is citing hunts from 1917; using 1923 National Match ammo; or Western Tool and Copper Works bullets. Perhaps as JB suggested, he was capitalizing on his big bullet/cartridge reputation.

Our sport has benefited greatly from technology. Imagine today trying to discount the use of LRF, high quality optics, or modern hunting clothing based on what we used in 1960?
