Most over rated rifle cartridge

[Lonesome Dove]

You and that crew of Kansas City faggots you rode in here with should leave.

Never been there.
But that's probably where the 30-30 was conceived.

Man, these 30-06 guys sure are a sensitive bunch.

It didn't win 2 world wars for you to talk mess about it.

6.5 creedmore
.22 creedmore
7mm rem mag
.300 win mag
.300 blackout

So.
6mm Creedmoor is underrated?
I'll sleep well tonight.

You’re right, it didn’t win 2 world wars.

I was going to just say all creedmore rounds, but gay .308 and .223 +p draws most of my ire

8mm mauser certainly didn't

7x57 is better

 

[Younggun]

You are correct.

 

[zackmars]

At sucking. We took one look at 7x57 and said "we can do better" and we did

30-30 is more obsolete than it is over rated

Bending over - spreading - I love 6.5 Creedmoor. .308 is a waste of powder. Not any better in energy transmitted, falls off the face of the earth at 800 yards. Y'all need a 7.5 Swiss to be manly.

Damn Robert. Not helping dodge the “6.5 CM is gay” comments with that post.

My pick is .17hmr. It's fast but over priced. I'll never own one and it just suits no purpose for me.

What are y’all’s thoughts on the most over rated cartridge? Mine is the 7mm Rem mag…not a whole lot of gain over the 270/280/3006, while using more powder and producing more recoil.

If your asking, if I think the 7mm Rem Magnum is over rated, Then Yes

My 270 will do most everything a 7RM can, using just 10 grains less bullet weight!
I have killed some pretty big bodied Whitetails with it - all were found;
Some DRT, Some ran and sometimes had meat damage in the off-shoulder.
I don't think a 7RM could have produced any better results.
Plus, I seem to remember that shortly after Remington introduced the 7RM in early 1960s,
They had some pressure issues and download it some.
Figure some our real cartridge experts here can elaborate on that.



If your asking, if I think the 7mm Rem Magnum is he most over rated cartridge, Then No Probably Not

I'll have to think on that one some more, But liked that previous answer = 30-M1 carbine.
I killed 1 deer with it - Deer ran a loooong way.
And I'll not hunt deer with it ever again.

5.56 NATO.....it's as effective as every other government program.

 

[RickLovesBacon]

.40

 

[paknheat]

Hard one for me to answer because I kinda like them all.

But if I equate overrated with useless,, then I think I’d have to go with the 30-378 Wetherby Magnum.

I mean.. wtf were they thinking with that one.?
