Default RE: What caliber @ 100 yds.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the replys. I'm waiting for a reply from our outfitter as to what yardage most shots are taken at. If it's over 75 yds. I think I'll leave the .35 home and take the .30-06. In any event the T/C will be my first choice if possible. I also happened to find some 200 gr. Silvertips for the .35 before I wentto the range this weekend and if I use that gun, that's the bullet I'll match it up with they shot a very nice 1 1/2" 3 shot group at 100 yards! Now I only have about 6 rounds left, but I figure that's 6 pigs on the BBQ pit!

Texas Hog Hunter - my trip isn't until the middle of Feb. however rest assured I will post my sucessfull ( I hope ) results when I get back.

In the mean time, if anybody else wants to add thier expirences or thoughts about using the .50 cal. muzzleloader or .35 Rem. please do so.
