[QUOTE="reconrover, post: 2302604, member: 91199"] On the serious side, when we were young (70's/80's), Dad started us out on .270's, .308, and 30-06. The .308 and a young kid with buck fever, and not great shot placement...I wounded a buck or two. We all switched to 7mm magnums...problems solved (with proper placement). Now that being said, one of the guys that works for my boss is an elk guide in WY. He takes a .243 out at the end of each season and takes full sized elk @ 150 yards or so. It's a beat up old savage that isn't bedded, and has a crappy old Tasco AO scope on it. I look at my fully kitted out .33 Nosler with the latest and greatest, and kinda shake my head at myself. But...I still love big boomers, and own too many of them...7mm Mag included. [/QUOTE]
