    And if you rifle didn't shoot this magical bullet?

    Who cares the amount of people shooting animals over 500m would be how many that it wouldn't matter what it was . . . .

    True but people are getting all touchy about there being no difference between the cartridges, when there kind of is. If your gonna go long action and burn more powder and fret about 500m shots, then to me it only seems logical to go for a caliber with better bullets. Even if you only hunt normal ranges why not go for a more efficient round anyway? That's just how I look at it, I'm a pedantic cunt over things like that.
