They’re not that hard to tip over. A decent bullet in .308 or .30-06 is fine as long as it arrives at the right place. Was lucky enough to live in Alaska long enough to be a “resident” for hunting and fishing. .308 is all I owned. The locals (as in the natives), often used a lot less. Yanks tended to lie their cannons though, .300 win mag was common, and have to admit I did use a loaned one on one trip.
