Sure am glad the smackdown has been administered on the venerable ole '06 and her capabilities. I might have taken offense and had to come out and defend the ole girl myself.

You know I do own a few magnum guns and enjoy taking them out shooting from time to time but I realize they just aren't necessary to get the job done. Honestly my 7mm08 will do anything the 7mmMag will do and about as well at respectable ranges. I think anyone that feels you have to have a magnum to shoot anything out there is suffering the Nepoleonic Pecker Syndrome and doesn't realize that its not really about how hard you can hit it, but more about where you place it that does the most damage.
