    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    That conclusion is already incorrect, and bullet technology will only continue to improve.

    Does the 223/6mm for everything change when hunt cost $$$

    You said it right in your post, range. Inside its range it is perfectly fine. But it’s range is significantly less than many other rounds, so why limit yourself if there’s $40k on the line.

    Agree 100%. Talk on the internet is cheap. Real world dudes that make an average salary and take 10+ years to save up for the hunt of a lifetime, and then actually take a .223 on said hunt are extremely rare. And yes I’ve read the whole other thread. And I'm a fan of the 223, I’ve killed...

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    Always looking at options that will work and be a bit more reasonably priced and easily available . If you reload that’s one thing, but a box of 50 black hills 77tmk ammo is $80 plus shipping at luckygunner. I’ve never seen a box in a LGS near me.

    His own mind doesn’t change reality though. If he believes the earth is flat, who am I to tell him his own mind? To me it doesn’t matter what he thinks, he’s objectively wrong.

    Luckily instead of listening to your random uninformed opinion, there’s a thread with hundreds of posts with pictures that proves you are incorrect. Let me see if I can find it for you. Oh right, it’s the one you’re actually in right now…

    Is the point of this to try to say grizzlies are not significantly different than whitetail as far as killing them? I mean if you shot both with even a 30-06 you’d know. That’s not to say the 223 can’t do the job, it can.

    O thought you were the expert? I’ve cut up many deer and skinned a number of grizzlies. I’d estimate at least 3 times as much muscle on a griz than a whitetail minimum.

    Nobody said it was. There’s just a lot more of it. Hence the amount of muscle you need to penetrate to get to vitals is more.

    There’s nothing magical of course. It’s just there’s a lot MORE muscle bone etc to get through than a whitetail or elk. Plus, if you don’t get it right the consequences are significantly higher. But there’s no question if you shoot anything in the right place with a .223 it will die.

    I shot 130 deer doing depredation with the 69gr match king and the furthest one went about 50 yards.
