 And 338 is the trespasser caliber of choice! people that shoot any form of 338 are trespassers by default

I killed two blue grouse with mine, but it requires a head shot.

I do know the 264 Win Mag is an effective grouse cartridge.   :tup:

That's over kill! The pendulum has swung too far. Nothing over 22 for grouse!

Well, I'm ok with anything under 6.5mm...  As long as it's fully automatic and suppressed.  But no magazines over 30 rounds.  That's where I draw the line.  Cause that's just crazy talk...   :tinfoil:

  I'm thinking 30 rounds is about right, you have to be prepared for a quick follow up shot, or 30, just to make up for these infierior bullet designs. Don't want to end up in the same catagorty of those **** arrow flingers with all that lost game.
