Come on, guys, cut him some slack. Most of us knew everything at that age, too.

looks like you are looking for a fight
ever seen what hapens when you shoot a rat and hit the feed bunk at the same time with a .410 try doing that with a 12 g

Yeah, but the differance is that I really did know everything when I was a teenager.

Dang! (dob: 2/23/88)
17years old, and to have such hunting experience & wisdom.
Reminds me of the "good old days"
Oh well, maybe I'm senile, but I'll stick with the 270Win., 7x57, 280Rem., 30-30 or 45/70, etc.

Im waiting for the list of calibers he thinks is obsolete? Should make for some comic relief...


We dont need that danged ol 270 and that 308 is a hunka crap..and why would anyone ever buy a 30/30?? J/K here so dont tar and feather me...I was just tryin to anticipate that list!

I knew everything at that age too. But Darn Now I forgot it all. I think all is obsolete except the 7MM WSM. I think he is just out to stir us old guys up. Young whipersnapper. Well I give him one thing, he is intrested in guns. Probably girls too. Me too, just can't remember why.

I’ll have to put the deer I killed back together and tell him he was killed with an inferior round.

I think we all go through this phase. There was a time when I could recite the ballastic tables off the top of my head and was impressed with speed and fluff. All that proved was I knew how to read as I sure as heck didn't know how to shoot and hunt. As we mature, we realize that what we use is less important than how we use it.

I guess that could apply to girls also.

Actually in accuracy shooting there is an advantage to the inherently short fat cases. Whether its needed for the average hunter that has no business shooting past 200 or 300 yards is questionable. And its a sure way to sell more guns by coming out with something new again. But those WSM rounds, especially the 7wsm are sure awful accurate rounds. And more easily accurate. If that makes any sense.

There is nothing wrong with the WSM cartridges. I think they are a good idea. That however does not make other cartridges less effective.
