[QUOTE="littlewhaler, post: 1863000, member: 50114"] With the virus going on lots of us have extra time on our hands and therefore chat bout no perfect answers to questions like this one. FOR ME, I shed my 338 win mag browning medallion bolt 2 years ago since I realized it just wasn’t necessary for my hunts anymore..I don’t hunt Grizz or Cape Buff..Elk is my biggest target and either my 280ai or my 300wsm do nicely on elk and all things smaller. I did love my 338 WM and it would be my choice for Grizz or bigger dangerous game over my 280ai or 300WSM but like most hunters, I won’t be going after that size animal and won’t shoot elk two canyons away anyway! Yes, bigger and faster will shoot farther and hit harder but I know my chosen limits and have plenty of power to kill elk out to 500 in adverse hunting conditions (wind/rain/ snow/etc with well placed shot..my humble hunting opinion based on what’s right for my ability and my target class of animal.
