[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1860893, member: 75451"] A subject that has been “beaten to death..... with many side-stepping the thread intent. Some choosing custom or full “wildcat” chamberings, some picking rifle/cartridge combo’s with impractical weight for everyday, various terrain use by “normal” humans, factory ammunition must be available, potentially needed as a stopping cartridge. So, here’s the criteria for the challenge. Rifle/Cartridge must meet this criteria: only one rifle allowed #1 - used for all North American Big Game (including dangerous game - assuming no back-up) #2 - rifle weight - under 11.0 pounds (scoped, fully loaded, slung) #3 - If a bipod is used - total rifle weight cannot exceed 11.0 pounds (scoped, fully loaded, slung, and bipod) 🌟 additional 👍 points for combo’s coming in at less than 9.0 pounds #4 - factory cartridge - (improved chambering allowed) must be able to fire a factory cartridge #5 - various terrain - thick timber/brush to hunting elk, sheep or goats in the mountains, to wide open western plains #6 - cartridge....bullet weight, bullet (cup-core, partition, mono) design (based upon a potential mixed bag hunt in “big” bear country - no back-up) and brief explanation for your choice I hope I haven’t missed anything! This should give you something to think about while sequestered at home! So.....what’s your “poison”? memtb [/QUOTE]
