RE: Favorite Caliber
I have typically hunt with a .27 or .30-06, I voted .270 for an all around deer cartridge,
it is a Rem 700 mtn. rifle w/ a Leupold Vari XIII 3.5X10 scope, so I use it for going out west or open woods.
However, I use my Browning Bar (odd-6) when still hunting in the NH thick woods.
Too many good cartridges, I think you should start a thread on the worse cartidge.
You want to stir the poop start a thread on Chevy / Ford / Dodge / Toyota.
That will juice them up, ha-ha!
