I guess Fred is saying enough is enough with all of the unnecessary big boomers out there. I kinda like that.

Some years ago I was in my favorite local gunshop. Some guy comes in and wants to buy a 7mm mag for his rather slight of build 12yr old. It was going to be his first deer rifle. The owner said "You may well buy him a 7mm mag, but it won't be from me." the guy left. The owner did the same thing to a buddy of mine who wanted a .375 for a deer rifle. No go. Pick something reasonable or go elsewhere. My friend picked a .300 win mag(still a little too much). I agreed with owner in both cases.

Mabe Fred doesn't want to bother with tooling up for a mess of calibers that most of which aren't going to be around in 10-20 yrs?
