Ok thanks for the info, im new to the rifle thing because we were shotgun only for deer hunting up to a few years ago. I think I'm going to get some of what you mentioned above and see what I like on target.
When I went to buy a new rifle I wanted one that I can hunt everything with. I didn't want to buy a bunch of rifles. What I mean by overkill is I don't want to ruin a bunch of meat when I'm deer hunting. If you expect narrower wound channels I'm fine with that.
Thanks for all the replies, keep them coming. Is the 178 grain a little over kill for deer? Right now I shoot the 150 grain sst, but I've talk to a couple outfitters in Montana and they said don't come if your shooting the sst's. They just don't work well on elk they said.
So I have a 30-06, im not going to buy a new rifle. I'd like to find an ammo that I could use on deer and elk. Something I can shoot out to at least 400 yards. The one bullet I've been looking at is barnes vor-tx 168 grain ttsx. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated thanks!
Depending on if you get snow or not, I would recommend getting chains if you get a 2WD. I have a John Deere 2WD 2640 with a loader. Works great. It's about 55-60 hp.
I found one and I'm looking to buy it for my kids starter rifle. It's used obviously, looks brand new yet. My question is have any of you heard of problems with this rifle? Anything I should look for as far as problems? It is at a gun repair/dealer shop in Northeast Wisconsin, they have new and...
A buddy of mine who is a navy seal once told me to get up everyday at 4 am. It sets the tone for the whole day, you get so much more done. I started doing this a few years ago, I get so much more done in a day. Like I said it just sets the tone for the day.
After reading some of the posts, im kinda glad I live where I live. I mean I would move to Iowa in a heartbeat but I'm ok with staying where I live. So I'd have to say, move to Wisconsin.
In your case I feel bad for saying what I did. But in many cases, there are so many non resident guys that come in to just shoot a buck and kill every doe they see because tags are cheaper than almost every other state. Rant over
