    regardless of how its complied the facts and stats are there for people to make up there own minds for free. for what ever reason you dont like the guy it does not mean other people cant use the resource to further there knowledge on particular rifle calibers. does it really bother you someone might learn something by visiting his site. who really gives a shit how he got the information.

    Sticky this.
    New hunter wants rifle. 0-400m wapity to rabbits.
    Anything based on the 308 case or 3006 case or rem mag case in a factory cal 6mm-338 will do it just fine.
    If you want cheap to run its 308 case.
    And really cheap loaded ammo its 308.
    Rifle- try some... How they feel in the hand, on a bench,swung up to shoulder, the action, the mag capacity and function decide for yourself because only you can do that same for fit.
    Mag style and capacity may dictate your choice of brand in factory rifles.

    And don't buy a rossi in any caliber if your serious about 400+

    I would have added Tikka to the "buy anything but a Rossi' Statement. (tongue firmly in cheek mind)
    All those with dogs waiting no longer fear death. Those with many dogs waiting even welcome it in it's time.

    Nah, healthy debate over which rifle, or whatever is best makes for some of the most interesting threads.

    If you really want to cut down on the length of some threads then a ban on the needless, bullshit and stupid high jacks of some threads should be considered.......I'm looking at you Neckshot.
