MOST OF These guys have the latest, greatest, MAGNUM. They can't hit anything with it unless they use a mechanical rest. And LOUD! They of course had to install some sort of LOUDMOUTH muzzle break. Everyone else at the range hates them.

real men can put 10 rounds of 22 in black at 50 yds with a 50 cal 5 points down, and not miss a beat.[;)]
You are a legend (in your own MIND).

I'll be willing to bet that those that have shot aganst him wouldn't share your opinion.
There are a few people on this board that do know how to handle the "big boys toys", just because your not one of them is no reason to cry about it.
When shooting a match, with sight-in and record target periods, over the course of the day, a shooter can become recoil fatigued. Brakes make you more competitive over the long day.

OK, OK, I edited the post to say "Most of". I have seen some very poor shooting from MAGNUM shooters.

sad thing is there are a lot of thinking. bigger is better.
i have also seen some yo-yo's that should not be aloud to have anything larger then a BB gun.

oatmeal! More deer have fallen to the 30-30 than anything.
JM
Maybe legally, but I believe that if you realy dig into it, the 22LR actually holds that distintion.
I guess I dont understand this, I'm going to assume it's sarcasm. to my knowledge deer, pigs, antelope or any other game animal have not gotten stronger, or developed thicker hides, or bones. So if a 30cal. was capable 30 years ago of falling game, what makes them ineffective today?

Nothing wrong with the magnums, but certainly nothing wrong with the old "tried and true" calibers either. In the right hands a .22 can be just as deadly as a .50 and vice-versa(depending on the size of game of course). My favorite rifles to deer hunt with are still my .270 Winchester or my .308 Winchester, but that doesn't mean I can't own a .375 H&H Magnum. I don't own it to go and show off at the range, I own it because I love firearms and shooting is one of my hobbies. Frankly, I don't care if I ever take a game animal with my .375, I bought it to have fun with and because it is a caliber I have read a lot about and that has a lot of history behind it. I am not going to deny that I have seen some guys that have a .338 Winchester Magnum(or insert any caliber you like) that they definitely shouldn't own. They flinch more then the devil on Christmas day and are afraid to shoot it, yet they bought it because it was "cool" or they "needed something that big to kill the monsterous deer they hunt", etc.
