[QUOTE="blipelt, post: 699562, member: 11310"] I am a big fan of smaller calibers however there is a time and place. Think of larger calibers as insurance policies. More room for error when a less than perfect shot was taken. I have taken cow elk with a 260 out to 450yds. However where I was at the terrain wasn't a factor if she ran. They didn't however mine was suppressed, they stumbled around and fell over on the spot. A 7mm would be my choice with a quick detach suppressor like I have for my rifles. You can shoot with or without, but mine has to have two different dopes. It also works wonders for teaching my 65lb. ten year old daughter. No noise and no recoil. Expensive but worth it in my opinion. Brent [/QUOTE]
