Many many times if you recommend a standard cartridge you will get the old story about how the 270 or 30-06 will just wound game like elk and moose and other than DM you won't see many others considering the 30-06 for Grizzly. The 270 and 30-06 fall out of the running for most when Elk are in the picture even though they are two of the better cartridges available for that work. I have caught a lot of flack for using the non Magnums for game bigger than tiny whittails.. Thats ok though because I have been using the 30-06 all over hell since 1956 and unlike some, I know what it will do. I havn't seen much it won't do though. Same for the 270. Its not like I havn't tried most of the Magnum cartridges as well. I had the Magnum bug for a while. Now that I have used them both a lot, I have gone back to the old standards.Like Me..

A lot of people who don't like venison are the same people that drag fish around the lake all day on a stringer on the surface in the sun and say that fish stink and don't taste good. NO LIE?
