You missed the point... a blanket statement using NO experience and drawing on incorrect parallels with unrelated firearms is not helpful in any way shape or form. The benefit of the online information highway is also the draw back... good info gets around fast, bad info gets around with lightning speed... and online armchair experts love to regurgitate BS info that they read online and then pass off as their own experience... what ends up happening is a cestpool of misinformation... that simmers on the world wide web and pops up with every Google search. I prefer either personal experience or the experience of others that I know and trust or those that have credibility due to the trust of those I know and trust... there are many very experienced shooters and hunters on CGN, for example, and there are also some that draw on "Wikipedia experience..." the trick is deciphering which is which... the truly experienced shooters/hunters can spot the fakes within a few strokes of the keyboard, unfortunately new shooters/hunters gobble up the misinformation and store it for future use and/or regurgitation, thus perpetuating the cycle.

I use 308 for 400yds and less, 338 lapua up to 800 and 50bmg for anything beyond. I know the calibers have more effective range in them on large game, but I like to play it safe when it's not paper. Ymmv

That is my point, previous post I put up as advised should be read. different guns, different quality, and huge price difference. You re-enforce my point. thanks.
So each kill has a price tag near a grand?
No a 300 dollar Savage Axis can take game out to 400 as we tested, humbling when you have a 2000 dollar rig doing a bit better but don't be confused by the na sayers try it for yourself!!!
reminder of first post, sometimes I forget...
Cognition
Cognition is "the mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses". It encompasses many aspects of intellectual functions and processes such as attention, the formation of knowledge, memory and working memory, judgment and evaluation, reasoning and "computation", problem solving and decision making, comprehension and production of language. Cognitive processes use existing knowledge and generate new
