That deer looks like he had a bad day. Good shooting. The 358 is an interesting cartridge.

That's a cool video. A good reminder that you don't need Sitka or Kuiu gear. Just your Winchester Silvertips.

I'd go with the 30-40 without more details on the loads for each. Even with that, I'd probably still say the 30-40.

It's all dependent and I've only taken one deer with cast but I'm usually going to aim at the crease of the shoulder about a third of the way up the body on a broadside shot which I've found to be...

I've got a 527 Lux in .22 Hornet that is a joy to shoot and carry. I got it as a grouse gun when I couldn't find .22LR.

That's a good one. I used PVC pipe, notebook paper, and metal coat hangars as a kid. I only ever hit one squirrel with it but it just bounced off.

I have while archery elk hunting a few times. I keep an arrow for the purpose. I'll take grouse over mountain house 10/10 times. I've also shot a few with 38 short colt while hunting Caribou.

That's a beautiful rifle and excellent choice of chambering.

That sounds like a great little gun. I have a 221 in a contender pistol and it's great. No recoil to speak of. I need a 221 rifle to compliment it but my Hornet would get jealous.

Sure wish we had some of those in the interior. Not too fond of Caribou and have not had a chance for moose yet. Nice chootin.

I've never thought of a 327 Fed as a deer hunting round but it seems that it worked great and you've done your homework. A hole through the lungs and heart of any size with multiple spots to leak...

Can't argue with that kind of performance.

I'm sure that is a handy deer rifle.

That would be a fun gun. This was in 375 H&H though.

I'm far from retirement but my dream rifle was the Ruger No. 1. Found one in 375 and enjoy it. Got a chance to shoot a Chapuis Double Rifle in 375 that the guy was carrying and loading to 38-55...

I would expect no problems with killing power at 1200fps. My load out of my guide gun is a 405 cast at 435 going about 1500 and it's had no problem killing deer. Understand elk are larger but it...

I do not but in the terrain (West Central GA) I grew up hunting where shots were 60 yards max, I think it would be pretty good.

Sucks you guys have to deal with that. I built a complete Highpower Rifle for around what that lower costs. It does look darn good though.

I have had one from Buffalo Jackson for seven or eight years. It's holding up quite well. My wife got it for me back when we were still dating so I'll never get rid of it as long as it still...

Guess I need to get to work before the ranges here are covered in feet of snow. I only have a few muffin ingots left from the last lead I bought.
Forum: Factory Rifles
Sounds like you have a couple of good rifles to take the needle off the record of a songdog or two.
Forum: Hunting with CB's
I've only got one animal with cast. A small doe broadside plus a 436gr hunk of lead at 1600ish gives two holes. I might get one out of a moose up here though.

I've owned my 1895G for about 6 years and was never happy with the factory sights. I didn't care for the gold bead and the front sight was loose in the dovetail. The front sight got bent during a...
