Is the brass different sizes then?They are all the same caliber. Just different cartridges.
Yes the cases are different sizes and have different case capacities. They are capable of different velocities given this.Is the brass different sizes then?
I don’t mean offense, but if you have to ask, you probably don’t have the experience to shoot any one of them well. Those are all heavy recoiling cartridges. You may want to start smaller and see how you handle recoil first. Don’t succumb to the “I need a big ass gun” syndrome. You don’t, and can still be highly effective.
Up to this point I have used what I would consider to be very common calibers 30.06, .270, .308, and even a .300 win mag (.300 am did nothing for me).
As mentioned, it’s not entirely about “needing a big bullet”. 3 of those CARTRIDGES you mentioned can all shoot the same bullet, as they are the same CALIBER. Bullet/caliber/diameter is only one component. The bigger issue is the amount of powder behind that bullet. There’s a trade off to all these choices.No offense taken. I have grown up shooting and have used a number of different caliber rifles to practice and harvest game. Up to this point I have used what I would consider to be very common calibers 30.06, .270, .308, and even a .300 win mag (.300 am did nothing for me). I was asking more because I am not familiar with the magnum cartridges. You are spot on about not needing a big bullet, and focus more on placing the bullet in the proper location.
True, but shooting at an elk at 900 yrs is an even piss poorer choice!That 06 would be a piss poor choice for elk at lets say 900 yard.
