[QUOTE="ATH, post: 1293242, member: 1656"] To each their own. Tough to over-kill something, except when you care about meat damage. I notice hunting-focused types are biased towards overkill round (I don't really fault that) and target-focused people who go hunting over-estimate the capability of paper punch rounds. I've got a foot in both camps, on whitetails, I'll take my 243 AI to a maximum of 700, on whitetails. Of course my 300WM will do so with more authority and more recoil. I just put 70 rounds through my 243 AI today in an f-class match. No problem. Can't say I've ever put 70 rounds through my 300WM in a day. Familiarity and proficiency are a large part of long range accuracy. [/QUOTE]
