Unless Teddy Roosevelt was in the habit of calling his rifles "Big Medicine", that honor goes to his 1895 Winchester in .405. His quote was: "The Winchester .405 is, at least to me personally, the medicine gun for lions". There is even a picture of him with a rhino that he shot and killed with it.

I stand corrected. I guess it will be nostalgia for the old west that governs.
