First of all, I'm new to the site, and I love it! I've posted a couple of times about opinions on left handed bolt action rifles and calibers.
I think I've picked which rifle I'm going to go with(L.H. Browning A-Bolt Stainless Stalker).
Now comes the fun part. There are several calibers that I'm sure would work just as well for deer hunting as the other. Here's the one variable....hogs.
Where I hunt, we have lots of LARGE wild hogs. I'm looking for the best caliber for a deer/hog combo gun.
For the deer, I tend to lean towards the .270 or .30-06. For the hogs, something bigger sure wouldn't go to waste.
I've almost decided on the 7mm. Rem. Mag as the caliber that not too much for whitetails and gives just a tad more "umph" than the .270 or 06'.
I would REALLY appreciate any help with this. It's a pretty large investment.
Any opinions, personal experience with calibers vs. large boars, pictures,.......anything.
Thanks in advance,
Schoolcraft
