your the idiot,,,,this video is beyond stupid,, quit making them,,
Well this guys telling me stuff I’ve used for awhile was a waste of my time . I had a 458 in a #1 for awhile never hunted it yes it was heavy both in weight and recoil . Had several 6mm and 244’s , they were and still are deer adequate in a reasonable distance same as the 243 . The 444 Marlin I’ve had a pile of experience using in woods hunting for whitetails and black bear . Think I’ve owned about thirty Marlin leveractions chambered for the 444 made between 1964 and 1975 and another made in 2001 and two of the 444P with those guns Ive taken close to 15 deer with jacketed bullets and another forty or so with bullets I cast myself in cast I used 200 grain all the way up to 425 grains . There’s a lot of folks that’ll tell you those early micro groove guns won’t handle weights above 265 or 300 grains that’s not factually correct . In those old guns I’ve shot and killed deer and bear with up to 375 grains . 380 – 425 grain bullets were fired in the Ballard rifled gun from 2001 . Never owned a 300 RUM but loaded for a couple as well as the 338 RUM true they have a bit of a thump but not terrible . I ‘ve owned a few 223’s in bolt actions that shot nicely just never been a fan of the cartridge . In my own case factory ammo cost is a moot point rarely do I shoot factory as I prefer my handloads . Anyway I’ll agree with them on the 458 it’s a bit much for North America but the 6mm/244 and 444 this guys out in left field . The 300 RUM isn’t bad just a touch heavy to carry very far and finally a pile of deer have been killed by 223’s not by me but by others . Anyway that’s my opinion , you may not agree but I’m sticking to it .
Sounds like you're the idiot.
223 drops deer every year around here.
Only an idiot would make this video
Why do we care about what people hunt with this video is stupid
Ai should be banned… this is a waste of time watching, good job I skipped through it…. .223 is a fine hunting calibre if you know how to hunt.
75 gr hand loads work well on hogs deer under 150 yds
4:36 .45-70 is modern compared to .444? There's almost 100 years of difference between the introduction of .45-70 and that of .444
My first big game rifle was a 6mm Remington. I never had any trouble dropping an elk with it. As a matter of fact it created more capillary damage than any of my other rifles so I don't use it much any more.
What a load of armchair BS. I've taken every American game animal and a pile of Fur with three of these cartridges. This is just never done it, unknowing nonsense.
I think it's you, the idiotic idiot. 😂😂😂
BS 6mm Rem may be old, but works well on deer if one picks a well constructed bullet. Nothing wrong with it.
That was the biggest waste of eight minutes I’ve ever watched. Probably made by someone who doesn’t own guns and has never shot a gun.
Complete shit show of video.
Every cartridge has its application gonna cover everything in some cliff notes for everyone here, this is just a click bait video..
458 Win is a dangerous game cartridge..
6mm Rem is a pest and varmint control round..
6.5 Creedmoor was created with the idea put holes in paper at long range..
444 Marlin is as tested as 30-30.. In the Midwest where you tend to hunt in smaller clearings it is more than acceptable.. Modern alternatives like the 45-70? Now I know you have no idea what you are talking about.. 45-70 is a larger much older cartridge, the 444 Marlin is actually the modern alternative to the 45-70.. Comes in a smaller more compact rifle and is a overall lighter package..
300 RUM not really wrong about it..
The 223 Remington, One of the best pest and varmint rounds.. Flat shooting and carries enough energy to dispatch them at distance.. The high pitch crack? How about discharging a rifle and the report always disturbing game..
Have you ever even owned a firearm? I see a lot of using stock images in this..
6.5×55 Swedish
I don't get the problem, other than availability, of the 6mm Rem. I don't have one but it's essentially a 243. How much ammo do you need to take a deer every year?
I’ve shot many deer with my 223 it works just fine as long as you know how to aim this video is kinda in accurate I struggle to I believe you have ever hunted.
Ok now the 223. I can tell you this, I done a tour or two in Iraq and Afghanistan. 1 tour to Somalia for about a month in 93. I can’t tell you how many enemies I’ve dropped with a 223 past 600 yards. 600 yards is not typical, but has been done. I never heard a soldier complain about their weapon. We just took care of business. Back then to get the effect range of a fire are was we suggested the target to be 6 foot tall, 200 lbs, heavy clothing. A deers skin is pretty thin. The 68 grain to 75 grain bullets work pretty good on deer out 500 yards from what I’ve seen first hand. I know because I’ve done it. It’s nothing but a thang.
Now the 300 RUM. Load up some 230 Grain Berger bullets and you will see over 3100 FPS from a 26” Barrel. It will still be subsonic past 2000 yards. The 338 Lapua Mag can’t even do that. It drop below subsonic around 1500 yards.
The 444 Marlin is probably one of the best brush guns you can get. Yes the 30-30 is more popular, but if you have shot both like I have you will go with the 444 Marlin every time.
