[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1056341, member: 12995"] The guy I quoted used the .30-06 as HIS comparison, not mine. I just continued with that comparison. I am biased. So are you. So are all of us. I own calibers from .22LR up to .45-70 Govt. I don't care what caliber you use, but more and more people make excuses to buy, instead of using the main one... "Because I wanted it." Which is the most acceptable one. Do I need 1/2 the calibers I have? Hell no... But I wanted them. So I built them or bought them. Which is why if someone said they wanted a .50 BMG for hunting jackrabbits at 300 yards, because they wanted to and because they can, I would laugh and move along. What gets me is when people say you "have" to have a certain caliber to kill certain animals. I'm pretty sure our ancestors killed them with muzzleloaders 150 years ago. And 1000 years before that with pointy sticks and rocks. So I just find it funny whenever people say they "need" or "have" to have a certain caliber for something. A know it all? Definitely not. There's a lot of things I don't know, and will never know. But I do know a little bit about a couple of things, and that tends to **** people off. Am I opinionated, most definitely. So are you. So is everyone. Everyone likes to think their opinion is correct. If people always thought their opinion meant less than everyone else's, nobody would ever voice their's, because they wouldn't think it mattered. Make sense? :rolleyes: As for a hypocrite....Aren't we all in our own way? I have not mentioned the STW not one single time in this entire thread. Which I find funny that you brought up. :cool: [/QUOTE]
