Phil,
Given your years of field experience, general gun knowledge, and seeing trends in popularity of various calibers over the years, you’d be a good one to ask…
Why in the heck haven’t relatively milder medium bores like the 9.3x62 or the 35 Whelen caught on more in the guiding community? I’ve only recently started using the 9.3 and I can’t say enough good about it.
Obviously availability is going to be a main reason, but you’d think if something worked well and caught on, demand could change all that.
Anyways I’d be curious what your thoughts are on that ?
