Well I like the 6mm Remington. But if they open bear season back up. I have no interest in using it the 358 probably #1 the 4570-44 mag 350l 450bm and then the 6.5x55. Probably on that order lol I actually like the 338 I have used the Winchester and have uses my brothers ultra mag a few times I...

The 9.3 now that is a interesting idea had not even crossed my mind

Don’t know about the 35w But looks like a 35-303 is there

All ready have a 45-70 I have used the 303 in the past but it’s been over 20 years. It’s the rifle it’s self that I really want. Just trying to decide on the cal. If it was in 7x57 there would be no question. And yes in the US Florida

I am looking at the Uberti CourtEney stalking rifle it comes in 303 and 45-70 With my shoulder the 45-70 loads would be the light ones 300gr Winchester hp ( I have a few hundred of the around) If I get the 303 if I could find them o would want 200gr or so but the 180gr is easier to find I would...

I like them for certain jobs. Tight swamps or tight tree stands in the swamp. I love my trapper leaver actions with 16 in barrel and the 45-70 guide gun. And room clearing I like the 11.5 colt xm177 clone that I have had since the early 90s

Well I don’t have a problem killing a female hunting. I not able to hunt hogs with a knife anymore. But when you grab a 250+ lbs hog boar or sow don’t really matter when you’re fighting to flip it and stab it on the heart.

It very well could be you are shooting mose and I am shooting fl deer and hogs Huge size difference

Try out a 257 w I have shot deer in the shoulder and had the stomach busted open when cleaning them. It’s only happen a few times. Normally when expecting a 300 yd shot and the deer desided to come out 50 yds are less. The bullets path were stright through both shoulder. Something busted the...

That’s strange. And I guess why personal experience can’t all ways be relyed on. I am not saying you’re experience is wrong. But for me the 45-70 on deer have dropped the quicker than anything else except a 450 bm. I have used hardcast.300gr hp 405gr sp And they dropped fast most of the time...

Some animal just have a will to live out of belief. I saw a little doe shot with a 200 gr 338 ultra mag under 75 yds away. The bullet zippered her she took off running she made it across the field with nothing left Blood trail a foot wide inside every where. I saw a hog shot to pices that made...

Right or not hunting like horse racing Has all ways been a pay to play type activity. Fl has a lot of public land but hunting is still a expensive pass time. Even some of the best wma have limited numbers of pass for the weekend. You have to be able to be off from work and at the wma office...

They should use land mines and dead lines for that one

I dont know why. If you get into any dangerous field of work you know the risk you are taking on. And the risk for hunting dangerous game by non standard equipment is it really as high as the risk of a bad shot by someone over guned because there going after something dangerous? I knew a old...
