ORIGINAL: Folically Challenged
but I finally came to the conclusion that I would have to make a choice that I could live with. Everyone was going to make fun of me no matter what I ended up choosing. As long as the elk don't laugh, I guess that'sall that matters tome!
Folks, thatsums it up assuccinctly as possible. Its all about personal preference at some point. The 30-06 well do the job no problem, so too will the 7mag, 300 mag, 338 mag etc. I prefer the 338 when I go but its just that a preference.
My opinion: skip the 300 and step up to the 338. Not because your 06 or the 300 won't do the job because it will.rather,with a 338 in the cabinet you can go brown bear hunting down the road, which I wouldn't take a 30 cal. for
