Ripp, you are correct, any animal with proper shot placement can be taken with a smaller caliber rifle. To each their own. I enjoy shooting and collecting the bigger calibers. Its not for everyone. I do most of my shooting on private property. So it is not a showing off thing at the gun range to impress others.That part does not interest me in the least. Now< have on occasion taken some of the big boomers to a shoot because some members dont get a chance to see these monster calibers very often. I think alot of us just like the larger calibers.

I have NO problem with bigger calibers,,have several myself and enjoy them a ton..I was merely agreeing with the statement that some that can't shoot them always have an excuse..which makes me chuckle a bit...

As to the other post of too much noise at a gun range...had not experienced that much until I broke out the .338 Lapua on my Sako TRG..has a muzzle break on it (which I normally do NOT use ever)..but man, it sure seemed to scatter those shooting next to me..BUT, not one complained or seemed to have much of an issue with it..as stated, really, ITS A GUN RANGE...

Have a good one..
