Your signature line disagree's with you.
No, 10ring, it doesn't. I never said a bigger bullet wouldn't work, or work better. I said you don't need them to get the job done, which in this case is hunting.

Note that I did say there is a big difference between hunting, and defense. Now if I were defending myself from bear attack, then yes, I would want the biggest thing available, and practical. But I wouldn't feel naked and helpless with a .357 magnum. Bears, even the big browns have been killed with less.

And old wisdom/wives tales not withstanding, there is no way, ever, that I would play dead. "they'll have to kill me before I die!" Arrr
