[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 919140, member: 61747"] You have issues with people not being able to police themselves when it comes to ethics and hunting. It does not matter what caliber they choose to be unethical with. In my neck of the woods the rifle can not weigh more than 16 lbs. That limits what a person can hunt with. I have people tell me I can not and should not hunt with a 6.5. Those same people belive the 338 is the only rifle capable of LR on elk. Nothing else should ever be considered. I bow hunt for deer and elk so you can imagine the ignorant comments I get regarding that subject. Do what you wish, do it ethically, and do it legally. I am not sure why it matters if you use a 50 BMG or not? It might matter if you happen to be one of those people who bash others for not using the 50. I find that arguements can go sour quickly if the parties involved are too closed off to understanding each others position. LR members here generally seem pretty accepting of one anothers opinions and experiences so welcome and good luck. [/QUOTE]
