"In observing the effect produced by guns of different calibres, it was found that the rifles of small bore taking from 60 to 70 balls to the pound (.40-.44cal approx) very frequently did not kill, although they might hit: while rifles taking from 30 to 40 to the pound (.50-.54cal approx) seldom missed killing on the spot. It was therefore settled that the rifles of larger calibre should be used in all places where animals proved scarce." Alexander Ross, 1823 (The Fur Hunters of the Far West) Things haven't changed much, but this is interesting in that there were apparently quite a few "small bore" rifles in the Snake River party....
