[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 870559, member: 12995"] Aw, come on man...We're just pokin a little fun about previous made comments from other threads. Honestly, I wasn't even referring to your comments on the subject. I've read on here so many times, and I've met so many stupid locals in my area that are whitetail deer hunting with .338 Lapuas & RUMs to kill 110 lb does inside of 300 yards, that it makes me sick how stupid some people can be. Just go buy a .308 Win if you never plan on shooting deer beyond 500 yards. And if that's "not enough gun", then you need to give me all of yours and go play in traffic. Also, that new "bigger is better" caliber trend seems to be making way around these parts pretty prevelantly now, so I've been noticing sort of an influx of stupidity in my area with the local deer hunting populus, judging by plenty of conversations I've been having, now that rifle season is less than a month away. LOL If you hunt out of state for big game, then having something like that is 1 thing, but if you never hunt anything larger than whitetail deer, most people will never need anything larger than a .280 Rem or a 7mm RM at most, because around here people think 500 yardd shots on deer is impressive (I don't think it's all that impressive, but it's applaudable for folks in my area).
