[QUOTE="44-40, post: 2862163, member: 126985"] Hunting is a variable endeavor, everytime you're in the field. Give yourself the advantage...closer shots, for easier hits, and bullets do not run out of energy, especially light bullets and smaller calibers, where they will kill pretty well, is close range. I used a 7 mag, it killed elk, but was never impressive, with any bulllet I tried, at the close range engagemens in pole thickets, and my hunting style. The 338 mag was more impressive for my style of hunting 250 to 275 gr bullets was my natural go to with a 2-7 X heavy duplex scope in dark thick timber. And your benchrest range group won't matter much in the timber, inside 100 yds,... Can you shoot fast off hand, and hit the target? They seemed easier to kill if not spooked on an adrenaline rush and they know you're trying to kill them,.. like waiting in ambush in a feeding area, rather than all out pursuit, my style in younger years. ...Exercise... shoot rabbits and squirrels off hand, with your big game rifle..exercise & shooting, fun combined.
