Default RE: Youth elk caliber

Shato,

from post #20:

"...But thanks for the dig none the less...."
I leave for theafternoon and the wheels fall off….
I’m familiar with a lot of your rifles and positions,
I know you’ve hunted and gotten elk....
We’ve been on threads before [you remember right?]

When one “counts things up”one hasto be specific as to howone counts orone gets “taken to task”.
There were three options within the quote below….

"....8 = Non-commits [ (1) couldn't pick oneOR (2) strayed off topic to different cartridge(s)]OR (3)may not have hunted elk..."
You seemed to think I placed you in the latter category.
Not so, 1 or 2, but not 3.

However, for purposes of counting them up,
You did NOT commit to answering the question posed, so....

I couldn’t count you as 270.
I couldn’t count you as 308.
I wasn't about to go listing more and endless categories, so....
“Non-commit” it was.

Personally, I would have loved toadvocate a 30-06…. didn’t; just answered the question. Didn't want to turn it into a pot luck dinner. Of course that is about what happened anyway with everyone bringing their own personal favorite dish.

Let's see, others yet to be bragged on.... 7x57, 284 Winchester, 30-40 Krag, 303 British, 30 Newton, etc.
================================================== =

FWIW --- Update:
4 - .308
1 - .270
7 - Non-Commits
