[QUOTE="SRHeer, post: 1259255, member: 61077"] Yes - I am deciding against 6.5 weatherby - Sometimes inexperienced hunters like myself look at hunting game like they do a McDonalds fast food joint - food drop on the spot but - actually good hunting involves knowing what one is capable of and their limitations - stalking and being poised as well as creative and patient. For several reasons I love hunting and plan on following through with more hunts as I as I get older - my wife is willing to take up shooting and come along - yeehaw - now I get to help and be her guide! - That's got to be fun! Right now we each have a 6.5 Creedmoor Ruger American Rifle that I am sure will work fine for what we need - With our lighter frames and sensitivity we may want to get a 7mm Rem Mag or 338 Lapua with a Titan or Thunderbeast suppressor to practice and have at ready if needed for a longer hunting application. As men we are funny creatures - LOL - whether it be with cars or guns we think that faster is better but not necessarily so - [/QUOTE]
