Rudraprayag is my native village. Jim is still a legend here in rudraprayag and people still hero-worship him. People have their own version of stories about him.

@@LEEJin-taeNo. Not now. Rudraprayag is a fairly modern place now. Back in the days it was common for a tiger/leopard to be man-eater but now Rudraprayag is well connected with the Roads and have fairly modern amenities. In one of his books, Jim corbett mentioned that it usually take about 5 days to reach Rudraprayag from Hardwar. Not it takes almost 4 hours.

Jim Corbett was an amazing man. Single handed going into the jungle to track and kill man eating tigers not just once but multiple times. He killed the man eating tiger of Chumbawhat at point blank range the gunpowder of his shot singeing its fur. The tiger had killed well over 400 people, he must have had nerves of steel.

@@wyomarine6341 I see your point and will concede that Euro/metric calibers have never put a dent in the 30 caliber family as far as sales go.

And many non-'06 beginning cases began life when they were developed from other European rounds.
