[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1861718, member: 75451"] Pretty interesting and varied responses. While I see a few cartridges and bullets that I honestly question as to their ability to “stop” an “up close and personal” all out attack by a big bear. But, to each his own! :eek: Also, a few took it upon themselves to alter the parameters of the criteria! :confused: But, overall....most have pretty good reading skills and comprehension! :D I do appreciate all that responded, as this may require many of us to step out of our “comfort zone” by attempting to meet “all” of the assigned criteria. There likely isn’t a single cartridge that perfectly meets all of the criteria.....so, attempting to choose the best compromise was the goal of this exercise! Something to do while many of us are in self-quarantine, or under mandatory lock-down! Thirty-eight years ago, I chose a very good “all around” cartridge. Then thirty-one years ago modified the rifle and cartridge, making it the near perfect “do it all” cartridge, rifle combo......not only for NA but for the World. Thanks again for playing along! :) memtb [/QUOTE]
