[EastHumboldt]

It’s placement, not caliber

That’s a disturbing amount of crab porn. Now I’m hungry though. Also the last pic, the crab carapace looks like the face of a koala, which kinda makes you wonder. “What caliber for small cute marsupials?” How much wallop for a wallaby? Think I’ll start a new thread.

I've been an equal opportunity offender this year using an AR-223 for two Texas WT doe and a 338 for a yote, another doe, buck and NM cow elk.

I shoot what strikes me on a given day at the home lease; AR, 6.5 manbun, 7 SAUM and now 338 Edge which replaced a 30 Nos.

I'll say this if I'm going anywhere additional money is involved or a short western hunt I prefer the insurance of the 7 SAUM or 338 Edge. The SUAM is short and light so if there's a LOT of mountainous walking that may "edge" out the 338...

Sometimes in the moment you don’t hit exactly where you aimed. It’s hunting and not always perfect. I have added some cartridge insurance.

Is this "insurance" interchangeable with "margin for error"?

How come NO ONE can say how much coverage they have? Do they just know that they're covered? Surely there must be known parameters for how bad they can miss, right?

I think the only way to really give a quantifiable number would be in penetration and that giving you bad angle options, and that's so bullet dependent that I don't know how you would do it.

I'm asking this with the best intention for positive and constructive discussion... Is there a shot angle with a small caliber frangible bullet a hunter with said bullet up the spout would turn/has turned down on an elk or crab?

In my case it's coffee in the morning, but could be something else if it was night time on the weekend...

“Hard hard raking” coverage, shooting someone else’s deer coverage, take your pick.

Insurance... The biggest scam around

When are we going to get the "Caliber Debate" forum category set up?

What a refreshing new take we're discussing. I've never heard it put that way before.

Much to ponder and ruminate on...
