RE: Which Caliber?
For the shooting that Indiana has to offer, Yotes, crows, 'chucks, etc. I would defminitely lean towards a smaller gun like a 223, 204 ruger, 22-250....
When I am down there goosin, my truck gun for yotes is a 25-06. |
RE: Which Caliber?
308 or 30-06 you will find ammo for dirt cheap, and they both are very accurate

RE: Which Caliber?
Another vote for the 25-06.!

RE: Which Caliber?
ar15 in a 7.62 or 308 if you wont a gun to shoot for fun and they have a great shock and ah effect
ORIGINAL: sngehl01 I'm looking at buying a new rifle this winter. I don't have any centerfire rifles yet, can't use them for much where I live (indiana). I'll probably shoot coyotes and things with whatever I buy. Mainly I'm buying it just to have and shoot at the homeplace when me and my buddies shoot. Shooting things like water jugs and melons and stuff. I don't know what I want, here's pretty much what I've narrowed it down to: .270 (regular, wssm or mag) .30-06 .25-06 .243 .308 .300 (win mag or wsm) Just looking for a good all around rifle, and something that'll really make a mess when it hits a water jug or something :Dplus something that has a pretty decent trajectory. I'll probably just go buy one next week, just pick one when I'm there, but I want to know what everyone thinks. Thanks. |
