[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1011508, member: 8873"] Ok I'll bite, for the sake of constructive argument... I have seen worse with a .444 with factory 240 grain loads. That was the most destructive thing I have ever seen on deer, several of them so it wasn't a fluke. I don't see many folks bitching about it being some kind of super magnum. The biggest wound channel I have inflicted on a deer was with a .30-06 and 180 grain corelokts. At a slight angle (looks like the picture may have been the same) it hit a rib going in and must have blown out at least two on the way out. I couldn't believe the carnage. I'll tell ya what makes me sick, people whining about the big bad man with the .338. I actually think it's hypocritical for somebody to shoot those poor little deer with something as badass as a 7mm STW (at least some try to tout it as the great thing ever) and try to tell me that I'm "over gunned". Most people would say the same thing about your super 7mm. My rifle just shoots a bigger bullet than yours, get over it man. Oh this might really get the debate going; I went deer hunting this afternoon with my newly purchased .408 Cheytac! I must be compensating for something.:rolleyes: Edited to say: believe it or not I'm not PO'ed, I just tend to give at least as hard as I get. [/QUOTE]
