[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1015367, member: 12995"] Sure was, and the coolest part about it, to me anyways, is that it is still 100% relevant in today's shooting game, thanks to the advancements of modern powders, primers, bullets, and brass. And I'm glad it didn't go the way of the dodo bird, and the H&H calibers. Of course, the H&H calibers went extinct because they were designed to use cordite for propellant, and the soft-shoulder angles were not known for producing large amounts of pressure, which in-turn didn't produce big velocity numbers (by today's standards). But those cases have spawned all sorts of awesome calibers we use today. Then again, if it weren't for the .30-06 Springfield, and the .375 H&H we wouldn't have squat compared to what we have today. I still would like to have a .264 WM someday. As much as I love the 7mmRM, I think it would make a good dynamic duo of whitetail hunting in lightweight sporter barreled rigs. [/QUOTE]
