Amen. I'me a believer in the 338 RCM, and the SST is plenty tough enough. I'll take that kind of performance out of a 20-in. barrel rifle any day when pestering big hairy things in cover that have the ability to bite back.

The problem with so many traditionalists is that they treat every new caliber as though everything is competive, rather than additive. If everyone held that view there would be no innovation in the firearms industry -- ever -- and Roy Weatherby's ideas would never have escaped his garage.


If you're fixin' to put a hole in something,
make it a hole to remember.
