I believe this is a fact.

Me, i have no experience with prb, and have no opinion of prb. I don't believe i am knocking a bullet choice, but i do believe i am ignorant. What i wrote may not be relevant, or nice, but i couldn't find the fishing section.
The problem is that we don't really know what caliber Lewis & Clark carried, so how do we know how to evaluate the effectiveness???

I have a copy of the first year of the Long Hunter Society, which is the record book of the NMLRA...In it, the largest grizzly killed was killed with a .530 patched ball and 120grs FFF...
