    Is a 30 cal big game rifle needed anymore?

    I used to own a number of elephant guns (CZ550 and Winchester Model 70 in 375 H&H, Winchester Model 70 in 416 Rem Mag, Weatherby DGR in 458 Lott) but ended up having to sell them at a low point and I'm never going to get to Africa now so it is hard to justify one these days. I may pick up a...

    Is a 30 cal big game rifle needed anymore?

    Having a well written article, podcast or video to point people to instead of a huge thread would be a plus, some people just aren’t going to mess with a hundred plus page forum thread.

    Is a 30 cal big game rifle needed anymore?

    I don’t seem to have edit permission but ignore the word ‘first’ in my last post. My point @87TT Is just that if larger handgun rounds are more effective why isn’t the FBI using them? Or is the 9mm as effective as they seem they need? The Army is going bigger because of body armor not...

    Is a 30 cal big game rifle needed anymore?

    If bigger is not always better why has the FBI gone back to 9mm? I bring that up since the FBI and their criteria are some of the first evidence that has been presented.

    Winchester XPR Chassis 6.8 Western

    Agreed, there is very little out there. I have a pretty short length of pull so I’m going to either try and cut down the factory synthetic stock or buy a Boyd’s for mine. The extra weight of the Boyd’s won’t be horrible since it is a 7mm mag.

    Is a 30 cal big game rifle needed anymore?

    People have been killing deer with .22 center fires since the beginning of last century. With today’s bullet technology they can more effective than ever with the right shot placement, which is what this thread has been circling the whole time. The lighter recoil and cheaper components allow you...

    Winchester XPR Chassis 6.8 Western

    When I looked for replacement stocks for a 7mm REM Mag XPR I bought on a whim a few years ago the only thing I found were Boyd’s.

    Enough gun?

    The .22-250 with the right bullet will do the job hunting the bear, that has been shown in other threads, the issue is when it’s hunting you so to speak. I readily admit to having no experience hunting bears or shooting at one running at me but from all accounts getting that perfect shot is a...

    Enough gun?

    I have lurked here for a while and am sold on the idea that one should look at what the bullet does on target instead of trying to meet a threshold of ‘x’ foot pounds of energy. I don’t have any problem with using small caliber, light recoiling cartridges to launch a bullet that will do the job...
