[QUOTE="rjtaylor, post: 1564093, member: 104483"] I didn't read all 6 pages so forgive me if it's been said already. I personally think we debate caliber effectiveness more than hunter effectiveness. I like to shoot long range but I also like to bow hunt. What happened to the good ole days when we tried to see how close we could get to an animal and put a perfect shot on them? Now I see threads popping up about that's not a good caliber to shoot an elk at 1000 yards where might need a huge caliber because it is going to be a gut shot. Let's go back to the time where a real hunter new the effectiveness of their skill and gun and didn't rely on big bores to make up for lazy hunting or actual hunting skills. [/QUOTE]
