It was, Saddlesore, but then Roy Weatherby invented kenetic energy which meant if you took a light for calibre bullet and drove it fast enough, you didn't have to be able to aim, nor track, nor shoot, nor get very far from the truck, nor figure trajectory since Weatherby rounds actually rose during flight. If you hit the animal in the foot, that thar kinetic energy would blow his heart apart. Don'tchaknow
Kinda like the magic bullets of today that are supposed to out penetrate all others. That means when the magic bullet passes plum thru an animal, it will travel further than your bullet does when it passes plum thru an animal.
