[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 433051, member: 2693"] I base mine on experience in the following states/provinces with hunting bears, pronghorn, mule deer, whitetail, coyotes, and wolves since 2002: New Brunswick, Ontario, Alberta, British Columbia, Wyoming, Colorado, Kansas, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Nebraska, Kentucky, Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Missouri. I have also hunted Iowa, and Illinois, and Ohio. My elk hunts have been archery only. I have hunted 6500 feet and above, on foot, atv, truck. I have been in the desert as well. I have hunted properties that are my own from blinds, treestands at distances up to 800 yards over cotton fields, bean fields, corn, you name it. No, I'm not a western native, and I don't live with the elk in my back yard. [b]I also know that there is no such thing as some mysterious inherent bad mojo with a 7mm diameter bullet, whether it's from a 7-08 or a 7mm Lazzeroni cannon or any other wildcat that pushes a 7mm bullet. END OF STORY.[/b] I am specifically referring to diamter, not bullet type or construction. I have never heard of a "job specific" diameter. That is a truly remarkable conclusion, and a misrepresentation of fact, and I say that respectfully. The positive note on threads like this is we will always stick to our opinions based on our experiences, along with a little science. I could certainly change my mind in many ways if I lived out west, who knows. I'm still at a loss for a statement that something is "so much better" if living out there, when the fact is all we are doing is arguing about your success v. mine. And that, my friend, is a topic that is a wash because as they say, dead is dead. If we both have ways of making a million bucks per year, who am I to tell you your way is wrong or my way is better?
