Ain’t it ironic that Steinbeck lived in the same state?#Sarcasm
Wait you guys aren’t getting paid for your HT shares? I get a nice little check every month.This isn't X, where you get paid for posting a troll post.
Wish I did. Feeding my need for extra testosterone shooting a RUM is expensive. Not to mention tires for my jacked up 4x4. mtmuleyWait you guys aren’t getting paid for your HT shares? I get a nice little check every month.
And some don’t know how to properly mount and hold a rifle.. I grew up hunting deer with shotguns, so had to learn proper gun handling to mitigate recoil. After a 12 gauge a 30-06 is a pussycat.Some handle it better than others. mtmuley
Aren’t you thinking of the 6.5x54 MS?And, historically the 6.5x55 was the favorite Africa plains game cartridge for many Europeans, who were the bulk of the Safari clients. I'll bet there have been more plains game killed with it than will ever be killed with any other cartridge, due to reduced opportunity. And the Scandinavians knock over moose with them on a regular basis.
And, for 99% of my hunting, I shot a .300, either H&H or Win Mag. Though, I shot my biggest buck with a 25.06.
But, my wife could never stand that recoil, and she was an assassin with her .260.

I don’t know your wife, but if you’re known to own a 6.5 Creed, it’s not a secret.When did you find out about her boyfriend? I thought it was a secret.
The Toyota Tundra is the official vehicle of river pimps where I live. mtmuleyI dont see many man buns any more. What I do see are dudes wearing athletic-fitting outdoor/hunting brands (not necessary camo unless they actually hunting, but usually some hunting brand), clean cut and shaven except for mustache, often with flat brimmed hat. Often hunting stickers - at least a few - plastered on truck, usually a Toyota. This is a look I see more of every year, I think you guys probably know what I mean. Where did this look start, why a mustache, and what caliber do these people shoot?
Same. The river pimps, tho, are usually slightly tubby with unkempt hair and/or beard. These elk guys are all super fit and clean-cut save the aforementioned mustache.The Toyota Tundra is the official vehicle of river pimps where I live. mtmuley
Gotta stay lean for the Insta followers. Can't be packing around a spare tire and extra lunch box thinking that's what people want to seeSame.

If you let him shoot it now you can continue all aspects of the tradition.I bought a 243 Win and was shamed into thinking it was inadequate. So I sold it and got a 7mm Rem Mag to develop a flinch and hesitancy to shoot at the range. I plan on gifting that monster to my grandson when he’s older.
Actually that title would belong to either the7x57 Mauser or 303 British. The 6.5x54 was considered a gentleman’s rifle.Aren’t you thinking of the 6.5x54 MS?
They shoot magnums. 338 win mags, the elk slayer extraordinaire.I dont see many man buns any more.

I agree, but I don’t recall any significant use of the 6.5x55 Swede historically in Africa.Actually that title would belong to either the7x57 Mauser or 303 British. The 6.5x54 was considered a gentleman’s rifle.
Not in any of the books I have read.I agree, but I don’t recall any significant use of the 6.5x55 Swede historically in Africa.
