You guys arn't even talking large bore. :rolleyes: 7mm and 300 win mags are at the middle of the pack, and are not considered large bore. These were both guns I saw used a lot for Elk in the west. They work well at range, w/out much drop. They also are relatively small bullets, do not come close to the weight bullets people hunt moose & bears with, and have low/moderate penetration even at close range. Not one person I've met here in AK uses something that small for moose and bear, and if they're using something in the 30 cal area it'll be a 30.06 or a .308 (and most people will call them crazy) The bullet weights on those guns don't go beyond the 240-260gr mark..... (small) Guys hunting moose and bear are shooting bullets as much as 2x that. 300, 350, 400 gr bullets, with a gun that can actually throw it. Look at the balistic test I posted. 7mm is total middle of the pack, and is really limited on bullet gr. 300 win mag has even less penetration. My .41 magnum wheel gun throws a bigger piece of lead than the 7mm and has equal penetration at 25yrs as a 300 win mag. Low gr. bullets have little penetration capabilities, they're designed to mushroom and do damage. This doesn't work with bears, as it just mushrooms on their surface, with out damaging vital organs. Put high gr. bullets in mid bore rifles and you compromise energy and again low penetration. [/qb][/QUOTE]Most of this is just an uneducated assesment of the results it references. [/QB][/QUOTE]
