I am starting to save up some dough and sell off a few things to buy a hawken precussion rifle. I have access to a 209 inline for this season (deer and maybe elk) but I would like to get a hawken kit. Would you all reccomend a 54 over a 50 or does bullet advancements negate the need for a little more? I live in colorado, no pyrodex pellets, no sabots, and no scopes allowed. SO, fire away! EJ
Deer only, .50 is OK-even with nothing but a round ball. Butdeer & elk, etc., .54 is better!
