[QUOTE="Marine24, post: 590576, member: 17072"] Discussions on the merits of one caliber versus another are throughout this forum and I've learned a lot reading other member's input, but I'm trying to boil it down to the factors folks typically consider when selecting a caliber. Based on my reading so far, here is the list I've come up with: Purpose - hunting or paper punching Target - paper or animal BC - bigger is better? Velocity - faster is better? ME/KE at the target Reloader or not Recoil sensitivity I realize there are trade offs but want to understand the why behind caliber selection to help me decide on my next LRH build [/QUOTE]
