[QUOTE="TG-5150, post: 1518295, member: 103379"] All this is informative for sure, my dad started us all on 22-250 with 55 gr. pills over some weight of IMR4064 for muley and speedboats, worked fine for 400 and less. When we were all 12-14, we(kids) packed a 6mmRem for elk, I was larger framed and packed a 270 when 14. That was well before the long range rage. I’ve killed many elk with .243 bullets and .257 cal. as well. To step up and class a particular cartridge is asinine at best. Crap, I’ve seen a .17HMR(.17x.22mag.improved)do things most would never believe. 25-06 and varmint type bullets for coyotes is great for bucking the wind. MNy times anything under 350-400 yards and the time spent sewing hides for the fur buyers isn’t worth it, but I wouldn’t hunt a field mouse with a .22lr, either. Some folks act like the 6.5 Creed would have replaced the 7x57 for African elephants......hahaha [/QUOTE]
