300 WBY, you did in fact say that you'd only gone afield after elk with 7mm Rem, 300 Win or 300 WBY magnums. That's not an assumption, that's an admission. It may be possible that you saw someone shoot an elk once with a standard caliber rifle, but I doubt it. If it performed adequately, you seem to have ignored it, but if the animal ran away, I'm sure you'd be blaming the caliber.
Yes I said that I have only hunted with those calibers. You, on the other hand, are the one that said I never saw an elk dropped with a standard cartridge. You don�t know me so don�t presume to make judgments about what I believe. If I saw one you doubt it, if it worked I ignored it, if it didn�t I laid blame? That�s all you man�.
I am just not clouded with any delusion that the 270 is inadequate.
Again, that�s all you. I never said anything of the sort. What I DID say was that I PREFER .300mags for elk. I know the 270 works on elk all the damn time I just said I like a bigger gun.
