RE: NY RIFLE BILL IN EFFECT. UPDATE !!!
The 30-06 is probably the most common rifle used but it is certainly overkill for deer hunting. I would probably lean toward a 308 or even 25-06. Theseloads pack pleanty of punch and shoot on a string. Your shoulder will take less of a pummeling as well.
Whatever rifle you choose, dont bother bringing it to my place. I am going out today to post it. I wonder if the legislaters consideredhow this bill may increaseposting private land.
Good Luck everyone.
