tyler79+FollowStop overthinking cartridges and just go hunt 🏹Tired of seeing endless "Is my 6.5 good enough?" posts. Our ancestors dropped everything from deer to bears with basic .22s and old fowling pieces. The Swiss used 6.5x55 for elephants, Appalachian folks trusted their Vetterelli for bears, and northern tribes took polar bears with .22 Hornets. The sporting press keeps moving goalposts on what's "acceptable" to sell more gear. Truth is, most North American game falls to anything from .22 LR to .30-30 with proper shot placement. Your grandfather's deer rifle will work just fine. Practice matters more than ballistics charts. What's the oldest cartridge you've successfully hunted with? #Hunting #VintageCartridges #DeerHunting #Outdoors 9058Share
