RE: Inferior Rounds
I'll keep my 300 win mag. In five years when I'm still paying 15$ a box with a 300 wsm you'll be paying 30$. Then I'll be the one laughing. I had a 270 wby mag and i got tired of paying 45 bucks a box[:@] If you want to see the future of short mags look at the weatherbys. According to federal premium .com I have more volocity and knockdown power using the same bullit.

RE: Inferior Rounds
You sound like shot gun recoil ***** to me. Obviously not a turkey hunter if your going out there with a 20 gauge with a 3" chamber, or you must like watching Toms strut right on by. In the mean time I'll be baggin' them with that useless 10 gauge.

RE: Inferior Rounds
Hey Buckmaster I hate to step back in this but, I am one of those none , nil , zip & nada people that do use my 30-378 for deer I also shoot woodchucks ,crows & some times an elk!! Try 124 gr. of H5010 behind 150 gr noslers. You must use a Federal 215 mag primer.But that will get you about 3870 F.P.S. Thats smokin. But you might be better suited for a red rider if the recoil scares you.
PS. If you look in the back ground you will see one of my favorite rifles.  |
RE: Inferior Rounds
ORIGINAL: BuckMaster7 The .410, 28, and 10 gauge are useless. Especially the .410 and 10 gauge. Why even bother with these gauges? The 20 gauge is light and far superior than those other two small gauges. Also, why would you bother with a 16 gauge? Most of the 16 gauges are built onto a 12 gauge frame to begin with. I would love to see these gauges become extinct. I can't wait till the WSSM and WSM take over the other calibers which are inferior. I have a whole list of inferior rifle rounds that should not be made anymore The WSSMs and WSMs (the 7mm was ruined though) are certainly here to stay. It's too bad they screwed the 7mm WSM. Since, the 7mm WSM has a shorter neck they can't efficiently shoot 175 grain bullets. The shorter neck is what reduced the popularity of the 7mm WSM which is too bad. It was the flattest shooter out of the WSM's. Wake up people, there's a revolution going around. Ahhh, from the mouths of babes. [&:] Always cracks me up when someone spouts stuff like this off. Shows the lack of knowledge on the subject. i too am ashamed this is the future of our sport. |

RE: Inferior Rounds
I like other people to use magnum rounds in light wieght rifles. I am a Chiropractor by profession and need the patients. Please, buy a wsm in a light wieght rifle and an ultra mag or any larger Weatherbys. I started with a .264 win mag at 17. There seems to be something about mag performance and youth. I am a large man and handle recoil very well. I can shoot any caliber and not be bothered. I shoot a 6.5x55. Why? Nothing gets up after I knock it down. It's sedate. I stalk, which makes it hunting to me, within the effective range and knock the deer, bear, elk or whatever I'm hunting on it's butt. This is better than reading a magazine and making a decision. Why get beat when you don't have to?
This is my .02 worth Dr Fatguy |
RE: Inferior Rounds
Well, I can shoot a rabbit at 5 yds with my .410 and still have 95% or more edible meat. Larger guages explode rabbits that close.
And about further out shots -- there more difficult with a .410, but you know what, sometimes a sport is better when it's more difficult. I'm sure Kansas would rather face Illinois in basketball than a school for the blind... Dynamite is more effective for fishing than most other methods, but there's no sport in that. |
RE: Inferior Rounds
I would love to see these gauges become extinct. I've got a Winchester Model 12 in 16 guage made in 1947 that was inherited from my grandfather. I got my first deer with that gun. It means the world to me. Extinct??? Muzzleloaders should probably be extinct too, eh? Especially those stupid flintlock deals... Experience a little life, will you! |

Experience a little life, will you! What he needs is education and experience |
