I’m “reluctant” to drive my F-350 as a commuter in town, the same as I am “reluctant” to use a 338win mag for whitetails.

There’s just not much sense in burning 75-90grn of powder for a job that 30-45grn accomplished perfectly well. He11, I don’t even like the idea of wasting 60grns running 30-06 for deer anymore. Not when 42grn will do the job just as well, or 28grn for that matter. I burned the powder as a magnumitis sufferer for enough years to have learned working smarter, not harder, usually pays off.
