30-06 jack of all trades master of none?
I need to vent. I just got back from my local sporting goods store. I went there to buy my father a 338-win mag for christmas. They had one 338-win mag in stock but I did not like the way it felt. The salesman tried to sell me a 338-ultra mag. I told him my father wanted a 338-win mag. I told him this would be his elk rifle. He told me "the 338-win mag is an outdated minimum of an elk rifle". He said he would only recommend a 338-ultra mag or larger for a elk rifle.
I was shocked. I saw no need to further our conversation. I walked out without buying anything.
