[QUOTE="ultimag43, post: 2498054, member: 122593"] we were not with a guide we were on a no public access private ranch owned by relatives of my wife here in montana ,i don't do guided hunts .(we don't need a nanny or a baby sitter ) we kill plenty of biggame on our on own been killing critters for 40 yrs never needed a second shot never lost a big game animal, and I've killed elk from 30 yards to 600+, never needed a magnum never needed a 30 cal to get it done, The the 280 ai & the 6.5 cm (both 24 inch barrels 1/8 twist ) have killed them just as dead just as fast with out the kick ,noise recoil and at times with an impact velocity i know wasn't hitting with 1500 ft pounds ,it was close to 1300-1350 still resulted in a dead critter (and no we didn't have to trail it a long ways about 45 yards ) and they died just as quick as if they were hit with 2000 ft pnds your correct everyone needs ro make THEIR OWN decisions, seems to me if you have a guide telling you where to shoot an animal and what caliber to use YOUR NOT Making your own decisions somebody else is making it for you , no thanks ill pass on the guide ty) my wife & choose to i shoot what we want how we want at what ever distance we CHOOSE , no one tells us what where when how or what to use ,especially a glorified baby sitter called a guide . you have a great day [/QUOTE]
