Cartridges you just hate

Two cartridges I don’t particularly care for are .357 Remington Magnum and .300 Winchester Magnum.

I’ll take the .41 Remington Magnum and .338 Winchester Magnum thank you.

Nice I'll raise you to the 44 Rem Mag & the 340 WM.
 
Any beer with light in it, or fruit. The Germans still make the best beer. Surprisingly the Japanese make some pretty good brews also.
Oh I totally missed this. I will concede, Germans make very good beer. Czechs make the best. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
Actually that is probably not true anymore. Our beer industry was ruiined by Heineken, SAB and some other big conglomerate and they made our beer into Euro-beer. Tastes like Heineken, so total shit. But there are still some of the old brands going and some too small to had been picked up by the big corps and they still make good beer. But the best has been ruined. :cry: I hate EU. More than some of the cartridges I do not like.
 
I despise the .30-06 and any of the off spring. Growing up I had an uncle thats all you heard. .30-06 drops all animals in their tracks, field dress it, and quarter it for you. .30-06 can take down planes and stop a M1A tank. Ok, maybe Im exaggerating a little, but you get the idea.

The 6.5 Creedmoor, hate it. It was pushed so hard in every gun rag, that people were buying them that had no firearm knowledge, because they expected it to be the most accurate thing made. It does nothing the .260 Remington hadn't been doing for years.

It does nothing the Mannlicher Schoenauer 6.5x54 had been doing for over 100 years.
 
Hello,

While I don't really hate any particular cartridge, I do have an odd aversion towards short-action cartridges, but only in bolt-action rifles. And I don't care to own any of the Post-1980 designs.

However, we own 2 Super Grades chambered for 7mm-08 and we look forward to adding a third. But still, even though I'm well aware of the 7mm-08s good performance - every time I look at the cartridge, I can't help but think of the movie line when the Road House owner told Swayze, I thought you'd be bigger.
 
I hate the 454 Casuul in the Super Redhawk Alaskan. (2.5") barrel Ouch ouch ouch
My 9" barreled Ruger Casull is enough recoil for me. I would use Buffalo Bore .45 Colt +P hardcasts in the 2.5".
 
I'm not a fan of the 6.5 Needmore Manbun. While it's a decent mid range hunting cartridge and a decent paper puncher, it's the people who go out and buy it thinking they have a rifle capable of taking Elk at a 1000yds.
My CZ 550 in 6.5X55 SE does what the Needmore does and I don't have to over load it to beat it.
 
I honestly can't say I hate any rifle cartridges. If anything, I'd own them all. Right down to 22LR all the way up 500NE or whatever the largest is. There are ones I wouldn't be excited or likely to purchase.

For example, the Ruger's are one of them. There was no need for a 375 Ruger or a 416 Ruger. As much as I love Ruger, from where I see it, it was a money grab. The new Hawkeye's in those rounds would have been 10x better served in 375HH, 416 Rigby, or at least if you can't do the Rigby, a 416 Remington. I'll probably never buy one. It just doesn't do it for me.

Another is the WSM's. Kind of weird niche to fill. Somewhere between a 300/7mm/270 (respectively) and their magnum equivalent counterparts? What for? I haven't been able to figure it out.

Handgun rounds, that's a different story. I despise the .40 and .357 Sig.
 
Guess I will add the 220 swift--makes a bloody crater around the wound on deer. Just a mess.
