[QUOTE="Arkansasdad, post: 1861709, member: 76766"] I am not writing this to offend anyone but am bound to point out that we have a few uninformed souls in this blog and instead of discussing facts we have been responding in pure hyperbole and rhetoric. I have been reading the responses to this query and find that everyone has a special interest in this. Why would a person choose to hunt large bear with a 26 cal. rifle when all the information acquired from ballistic data and personal testimony directly contradict using this caliber. On the other end of the scale a 340 WBY would leave very little for the pot if hunting small game. I would choose a 300 WBY with 180 factory ammo. Quality rifles built today are very accurate with a good scope or iron sights. I see no difference in customizing an already good and accurate rifle and buying a Corvette. There are very few places to show the extra power and handling that may or may not exist over a production product. Above this most cannot shoot or drive better than a standard built product provides so the added time, expense, and planning is no more than one-upmanship and bragging rights that stroke the ego but not better or more useful.
