That's nice bull but I'm not sure what a 378 WBY does to the animal that a lighter kicking, lighter rifle chambered for something like the 30-06 wouldn't have done as well..

Makes'm "deaderer"! grin You are 100% right Brad! The old 06' is just like vanilla ice cream, sometimes it doesn't get the love it deserves, everyone always wants rocky road or some new fancy flavor. I still like vanilla, but with sprinkles... my new flavor that seems really fun is the 338-06 in one of the Ultralight Mark V's. Got two of them, one for each of my daughters.
