Justin and I had our own thread going back in the mix and decided to start a new thread in case someone else might be interested.
Origiinal post from Adventures
Why is it that when I told the board in Jan. that I was going to make my .338 into a .338 ultra and cut the barrel down to 22" everyone jeered and snickered, but someone does that with a 375 (which basically has the same ballistics) and whoo hoo it's a great guide gun. I didn't end up cutting down the barrel due to everyone telling me not to including the gun smith the taxidermist and the grocery store clerk and then i took it to whitter last week and while I took a nice bear with it that dang thing got caught up on every dang branch I came across. I'd ahve to agree with the poster that said it's about the shooter not the rifle. I also hunt with a bow and it seems that if you thought your piece was inferior you just have to get closer.
