RE: best deer gun ?
I feel like the lone ranger here- my gun depends on where im hunting, one spot i hunt is very wooded with about only 75 to 100 yds here i use a 44 rem mag carbine or pistol with 240 grain jhp, which i really like for the knockdown power(i hate trackin) but another spot i go has 300yd shot possiblities i carried a mauser 98 barrelled to 270 BUT this last year was introduced to the power of a 300 win. model 77 ruger and a 7mm win.short mag. both very nice guns the 300 left a hole as big as the 44 in the deers chest. and the 7 was a tack driver at 100 yds 200yds a 1 inch group and a 2 inch goup at 300 ---amazing
dad shoots a 30-30 as does my bro, nephews -- no ammo left for me
and BROWNING308 (also a nice gun) i scratched a fleas back on top off a deers back at 6 miles ---if your gonna lie ----lie big---adolf hitler
