The latest and greatest take two

Stopped at the LGS to see what they might have as I do my search for my GNR 429 and 41 GNR donor revolvers. Two young millenials were there extolling the virtues of the new hot 6.8 Western in their long range gun pursuits. So I asked where do you guys hunt? "Alabama". So what's your average shot distance? "100-150 yards". So why waste your money? I use a single shot pistol In 44 mag, 356 GNR or 41 GNR for those distances, why waste your money on such an expensive long gun and ammo? " Whaat?" I just left them there staring at one another wondering why I would be such a foolish old man I guess.
