If your justification on a small caliber is a head shot kills them then you’re just asking for trouble.
There’s no perfect caliber. Everyone has their favorites. I shoot a 7 mag and a 300 win mag. Both are pretty capable of near anything in North America. I’m not taking either after moose or brown bear. Brown bear or grizzly will kill you. I want a show stopper. Heavy hitter.
I say it since nobody else has.

I have no justification for a smaller caliber but a lot of people think you need a 300 win mag to kill a prairie dog.. and my comment on shooting them in the ear had more to do with if you had to kill something theres always a way..

Ordered me one of those bad boys today!
