    Elk Caliber for Small-Framed Female

    I LOVE footage of the A-10. Haven't seen one live yet.

    Elk Caliber for Small-Framed Female

    Yep. My favorite bear camp has almost exclusively tree stands. In 2016 I was assigned the highest tree stand solely because I was the only hunter (out of about 12) who brought a safety harness. I was also one of two hunters who used hearing protection in the stand, even though most had...

    Elk Caliber for Small-Framed Female

    It amazes me how few people at hunting camp use hearing protection OR safety harnesses. I've gotten crap for both.

    Elk Caliber for Small-Framed Female

    Does Savage still make the "Lady Hunter"? Their new lightweight is are they (aptly named) Lightweight Hunter and Lightweight Storm. Just got my daughter a Lightweight Storm in .308 and she loves it. Adjustable length-of-pull (but not comb height). Or are you big on the wood stock?

    Elk Caliber for Small-Framed Female

    Nobody will roll their eyes as long as you add that totally un-hip "e" to the end of "Creedmoor".

    Edgy as a billiard ball. Can't imagine what you think is dull.

    "Admitted"? You make it sound like a crime. But "marginal" is vague. I need a number so I know whether I can express an opinion. I know it will be less than your own awesome "carte blanche opinion" figure, but that still leaves a considerable range, and I'd hate to guess. Imagine the pain...

    Gosh, I've sure been humbled by these pearls of wisdom. To help us little people out in the future, perhaps threads should post minimum kill count/years experience required before one may express an opinion on the topic.

    Opinions on 10mm in Grizzly country?

    I see your new toy came with one of those little loaders. I use the commercial version, and always wondered whether the included magazine loaders were any good. Have you tried it?

    Selling Brass

    Ok, I see some interest. Let me do an estimate of how much I have.

    He insults RUM purchasers, people to obtain information from the Internet (which is all of us, BTW), and those who admit to lack of experience (instead of those who pretend on a keyboard to be Jack O'Connor x6). Where exactly did I "insult" any of these people, especially .243 shooters? Calm...

    The emotional attachment some people have to a cartridge is stunning. Kinda explains the overrated part.

    Caliber Battle

    Boomers get the same irrational tingly feeling over the .30-'06 that millennials get over the 6.5 Creedmoor today. One needn't be a ballistics expert to see that people attribute ridiculous magical powers to these cartridges. I like the .30-'06. I think its one of the best woods black bear...

    My marginal level of hunting experience says that modern cartridges are better killers than people give them credit for. I like some margin, but people kill surprisingly large creatures with small cartridges. Nevertheless, there are two other considerations: Distance and blood trail. What...

    Caliber Battle

    The .30-'06 was the most overrated hunting cartridge until it was dethroned by the 6.5 Creedmoor. Still, for the type of hunting I do, I'd rather have a .30-'06, but I know a few 7mm owners who won't shoot anything else.

    shortages

    A good counterexample to this (for me, anyway) is .22LR. Right after the 2013 Obama Ammo Shortage, I bought a .22LR rifle. About a year later, bought the wife a .22LR pistol. Her pistol is finicky, so I learned to only buy CCI Mini-Mags for it. (The rifle is a single shot so it uses very...
