Ron--" When I take him deer hunting I "force" him to use my .303 double!"

Ron, Yes, I too see so many young "kids" these days all wanting a military style rifle; usually in .223 caliber, for big game-- all I can do is shake my head as I walk away! You tell him that there is nothing wrong with the .303, and that my brother used a .303 to kill his first 6 point bull elk (while I was using a .30-06 to do the same, in Montana, where we grew up, and where he still lives), and since that time, my brother has continued to use his .303 to take many other elk and deer, without a problem.
