Gosh 500grains,
Who was talking about elephant, hippo, rhino, etc. Or is that all you hunt?
I think the question was "is there a modern place for it", is there alot of rhino hunting going on? I think most of us would love to bag the "Big Five" but how many of us will get to.
I think most of us hunt a little closer to home every year rather than the once in a lifetime hunt. In the U.S. that means Deer, Elk, Moose, Hog, Bear. Deer being the most common prey, and in states like Ohio, Iowa, Wisconsin, Southern Michigan, you have to use a shotgun. I would love a Paradox, or a 12 bore rifle, either would be perfect for my needs.
