Thanks for the info. Very helpful.

I suppose I don't have much to add to what's already been said but I own and shoot rifles in both calibers (as well as the .30-06 which is what I'd personally recommend for a "do it all" rifle). They're both great calibers and, IMHO, capable of everything we have to offer on this continent (at...

OldRook - did you get 100% penetration on all six shots? I assume not since you recovered a couple of the bullets but was curious. Thanks!
