Ga CHAPTER XV KILLING POWER THE discussion as to the killing qualities of the various cartridges when used on big game has been going on for many years ; in fact, it is probably as old as is the use of the rifle on game. As far back as 1886 sporting papers devoted columns to the subject, while in the English press we have records of discussions of this character ninety years ago. And still sportsmen disagree. First we had the " big- vs. Small-bore discussion, " the...n the " high- and low- velocity discussion " ; next we were treated to a dissertation on energy and foot pounds, and to'day it is all " explosive effect. " We even see many men waxing eloquent in print on this subject who have never killed or seen killed a single head of big game in their lives. Therefore right at the start of this subject I had better qualify as to my right to discuss it by stating that as near as I can count up I have to date (August, 1917) shot with my own rifle seventy-two head of big game.
