    I think the goal is gun and ammo sales, not deer being harder to kill or further away. 
    A couple of years ago my nephews wife was bragging to me about the deer she got with her new rifle. I asked what rifle she had. 
    “Oh, it’s a custom built rifle from (who ever the heck). It’s a tack driver .300 Win Mag.”

    I said “How far was the deer out there?”

    ”Oh, maybe 70 yards. That’s about how far it is for all my deer” :blink:
    I said “Holy Sh**! You ever consider a .30-30? It’s a lot cheaper, less recoil and it’ll get the job done at those distances.”

    She made a face and said “Who want to shoot those old things?”

    Yeah, she’s a pinhead…

    I think your sarcasm meter needs adjusted.

  2. I really like my 28's, but it costs almost as much to reload as 12 is to buy new. 20ga if cost is a concern, but I've had no trouble finding 28ga ammo. I have a Browning clays gun and a SKB Turkish made field gun, shot a lot of clays with it before I got the Browning. The SKB is a great "lower cost" gun but still 2-3x more than the Stevens.

    My Mom used to make rhubarb just to eat as a side dish.  IIRC she used abou a 1:1 ratio boiled until it was a mush.

     

    I liked it

    over ice cream, on oatmeal and other cereals, on toast.

    Mine too. We had plants in the back yard, often ate them fresh picked and raw.
