but given the lack of a quick second shot does it not make sense for the single shot hunter to use a 7 mm or 300 mag on antelope and a 375 HH on a large bear (assuming in both cases the hunter can shoot accurately)
Well jgttechjunkie, IMO, a single shot on any game that is not dangerous would be just fine, with the above "shoot accurately" statement, but when you're talking about a critter that can be dangerous to life, than it would make more sense to make the first shot count, and the second shot, and the third shot, etc. until there is absolutely no doubt that it is dead! '
I'd be willing to bet that most deer, elk, antelope all only require one shot to kill them, as with a bear, but the deer, elk, and antelope aren't dangerous after they are hit with the first bullet! Better save than sorry
