Hunting is a right, treat it like a priviledge - respect nature

I got all of my deer with 30 caliber bullets in 3 different cartridges.
180 grain factory in 30'06(I don't suggest)
150 grain handloaded Hornady in 30/40(I do suggest)
170 grain handloaded paper patched or Hornady in 30/30(I suggest both)
