    I guess it depends on how secure you are with what you have.

    A .25 cal round placed in the right spot by a patient hunter is as deadly as it gets. I shot a .30 cal round for over 20 years with no complaints and lots of success. I now know it isn't needed unless you're using it as an excuse to take marginal shots and break deer down.

    I got a .300 zeroed at 300.

    Im sure Im overcompensating for something but on the other hand I only gotta compensate about 24" @ 500.

    I'm picking up a 7-08 today and my man Rickaaaaay has got some 120gr missiles loaded up for me. I'm looking forward to tipping shit over.
    Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him

    He ain't wrong, he's just different, and his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right

    There isn't a shrink alive that wants inside your head.

    I asked Big Agnes why he shot a .300 one time...

    "Cuz they don't make a .301"

    I reckon so.

    Hell, I've done it with a .243. Shoot 'em in the head.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.
