RE: Would You Hunt a ...With a Lever Action 45-70?
Buffalo hunter.....I agree with you 100%. I also agree with you regarding the 30-06 being just about the best rifle/cartridge to get any job done. More so in North America. IN Africa, I wouldnt be that good of a shot, so I need a little more "omph" to get the job done. I'd feel pretty good with a good .338 Win Mag, but I understand that caliber is too small and illegal for big game in Africa.
I agree with shot placement and getting close. Why do you think the past 4 years I've been taking everything from CA mule deer, 3 black bears, and 5 hogs all with my .243!!!!!!!!!!!! I love that gun. Nothing beats shot placement. Nothing.
