'Course I can shoot a lil' bit and that don't hurt...................
True. I expect you log 5,000 rounds a year?
A guy with that much practice, a custom rilfe that shoots bbug holes, and the trajectory of his bullet taped to his stock (complete with silly-wet turrets) can make a 7-08 sing.
But, frankly, my dear--you don't matter. You are so for onto the side of the highly competent shooter, that caliber selection is unimportant. Hell, Karamojo Bell killed elephants with a 7x57 (the 7-08's ballistic twin). he does not matter either.
Its my freind Pat, that matters (an that JJ was speaking to). He goes "hunting" every year. But he still owns the same box of 180 grain 30-06 remmy Express ammo that he bought in 1994. Pat needs to shoot a big caliber. That way, if he ever sees a deer, he has a chance of finding the blood trail.
If he was shooting a 223, trailing would be impossible.
