So I know this is probably a hot topic and there are a probably a few threads about it already.
But the general question rang in my head.
Bigger bullets/grain = stopping power.
The conversation that's been had over and over.
But it was reinforced by 2/3 respected gunners.

I then ask myself the question, are Bigger rifles and rounds nessesary?( I know most of the answers will either be yes, or why not? I'm hoping for an actual conversation to form)
Outside of hunting and going for 1000 yard shots?
As much as I like 45-70, I look at it and don't see it as a need. It was a 100% want.
I even think of bug out scenarios and actually question if I'd take it or leave it.
And 90% of the time, the answer is leave it.
Due to the need being very low. I'm not exactly in bear country.
And for scenarios that need a bigger round whatever they maybe, you can just get another AR upper and use standard GI mags for all rifle rounds.
I'm curious to where this will go. If a proper conversation spawns from it and things like 2 world wars are not thrown around.
