[QUOTE="buffalorancher, post: 234312, member: 5771"] I've had two clients hunt deer with a 30-378 and there was meat damage on both. The problem wasn't the caliber but the fact that neither guy could shoot worth a s**t. I was happy they were actually able to hit a deer. It may not be the case here but a big rifle needs to be shot and it's not just recoil that will get you, muzzle blast causes just as much grief. If you were hunting with me I would unquestionably tell you to bring the 257 regardless of all the ballistic info. that's out there. [/QUOTE]
