Yeah, it's real funny how many of the same people will advocate nothing short of a 300 magnum, of some sort, as a bare minimum for hunting elk and moose and then the next day a hand gun is prerfectly acceptable and more gun than is needed. I can't figure it out either.

All of the power and big bullets in the world will do nothing if the bullet doesn't go where it needs to go. Too many people do not get this first basic rule of hunting and shooting.
