I'd rather have a form vs broz episode. I don't think jvb has any actual opinions. He's just repeating whatever the gun company that most recently gave him free stuff told him.

Edit to add: you just watch. If Hornady or someone ever tries to make a high velocity 6 mm for big game, jvb will be on board immediately.

Listen to the JVB podcast with Seth from Hornady killing dozens of African game with 22 creed and 22 arc…

Who is this Broz person?
I think he is a long range hunter who (like Form/S2H/many of us) is recognizing the importance of bullet construction but is more into larger calibers/cartridges.


I don’t know much but here is a spot to start digging:

Think it’s funny Joseph has been hunting for a long long time all over the world and had compiled a large data set of his own. Killed lots of big African animals, elk, etc. s2h talks about data data data. But when there’s someone else with a large sample size of data out there, he’s just stupid cause his data set opposes yours? A lot of people on here just repeat or quote what’s said on the s2h podcast about small calibers so do they actually have an opinion or just repeating what they are told as well? 🧐🤷🏻‍♂️
Sorry but that’s a not a large data set. Thats average. Cool he kills 5 animals a year maybe 10 if he goes to Africa …with larger calibers. What about those Texas boys on MLD ranches that HAVE to cull 40 -100 plus deer and exotics(aoudad, cow elk, axis, nilgi, etc) and another 50 plus hogs EVERY year and do it with small calibers? Who has more experience to provide a rebuttal?

I’d listen to the guys that have had the ability to drive around from high rack, jump in a helo, etc and HAVE to kill stuff 365 days a year, to stay in their state prescribed management programs, and spend 10k plus a year in donated hunters for hungry processing charges

Too each their own, podcasts are decent information but the heavy sponsored full time job ones like JvB arent really big data sets. Decent yes but big…. Not close

To have an actual large data set you aren’t getting it from public tag states or even general private land tags. you have to be part of a private land state management program focused on helping maintain optimal carrying capacity. Now is that Avery? no. Is that JvB? no…
Closet to that is Form and Boz.

Ego’s are fun until the quantifying of experience comes full tilt.

If these “establishment” gun rag writers admit that wallop and knockdown power and penetration and all this horseshit they have been writing about to give all their advertisers a happy ending in every “review” (aka SE asian massage) their whole writing career would be a complete joke. Oh wait it already is.

Preview wallop analysis

85 pound doe. 338 win mag, norma oryx 230gr. 70 yard shot. ~ 2700 fps impact. Exit hole shown. Bang flop, and i could see little smoke curley Q's coming out of the exit hole for a few seconds after the shot. Talk about wallop!!!
It’s quite common to shoot little deer with big rifles in AK, for obvious reasons.

I’m squarely in the anti-magnum cartridge camp for any and all applications,

Why? Why do you care what someone else shoots? I could care less about what you shoot, why would you care what I shoot? I am pretty sure that a 108 ELDM or a 180ELDM through the lungs of an animal will kill it. Why should you care if I choose to use a 180?

Why would you care if he cares what you shoot?

(that was an attempt at humor)

Seriously though, I care what others think because:
A) They might know more than me on any particular subject and I can learn from their thought pattern/logic/experiences.
B) They might know less than me on any particular subject and I can give them insight that will help them make better choices
C) If they're a buddy, I might have the chance to make fun of their dumb opinions.

That isn't the point. When you say you are "anti-anything" that means you are opposed to it and want they act to be ceased and want others to comply. For example, I am anti-war and I will actively work to preventing it. The point is it is as dumb to be anti-magnum as it is to be anti-small caliber.

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume he's not planning on committing industrial espionage by sabotaging the machinery companies use to create magnum bolt faces.

We're on the same page, I think.

Nobody is coming to confiscate magnum rifles or outlaw the use of non magnums. I think its just a discussion about which tool is best for the job.

That's the point the isn't. A civil discussion about the pluses and minus of the various choices and points of view and respect for each person to make their own decisions based on that individuals needs and preferences. Rather than being "anti" why not be cool happy that works for you, I prefer X it works for me. I'll do me, you do you.

The whole tone of the big versus little discussion and the derision of people with a different point of view, JVB for example, is ridiculous.
