[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2721814, member: 109862"] I’m sure at the rate I’m learning and unlearning things I’ll one day end up surrendering my overbore magnums and high bc lawn darts and hypervelocity monos and rediscover that for most of what I do a medium bore with a big thumping round nose in the 2200-2800 fps range with lots of exposed lead just straight cannot be improved upon as far as terminal ballistics and DRT kills to no matter what a ballistics table “knows”. Oh wait…it sounds like maybe I’m discovering it already…:🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Dads 30-30, my 8mm mauser, and my .358 Norma (yes a mag but not overbore….and as Nate Foster says, the .358 Norma with old fashioned “blunt” projectiles has a certain intangible X factor…those who use it fall in love with it) all seem to kill very cleanly despite not being fast or high bc.
