    North America Big Game Rifle

    300 win mag with barnes-x bullets............. moose, bears, elk, deer, goat , sheep,.......... one shot wonder. If you dont have to worry about brown bears... tiny 243 with barnes-x will kill them all one shot as well.:D

    If you own a 22 lr and a 223 would you get a 22 magnum?

    sure a 17 will kill anything if you do yer part, I dont trust that tiny chunk of lead,( on fox or yotes) and my 22 mag hasnt failed me yet. Im of the "if it aint broke-dont fix it" club. As for the 17 being "more" accurate? gun is only as good as the operator.... grouse & rabbits dont care...

    Best Rifle/Caliber for North American Hunting?

    speedakl... exactly, if not for brown bears where I hunt, a 243 with 100 gr barnes -X is all I would need. Most people equate magnum power as a for "sure thing",... Ive guided in 3 states for big game, Ive watched guys miss 50 yard shots at broadside animals. TV show's try to convince...

    Two Hunting Rifles - Which Calibers?

    Perhaps a realistic question would be.... when the USA/world crumbles and it all goes "MADD MAXX". What is the ONE weapon you would own to survive on. Now you are talking man & beast. Which, at the rate of things,: isnt a far fetched question. Must do it all..... choose wisely grass-hopper.:uhoh:

    Best Rifle/Caliber for North American Hunting?

    I have to agree with you on the bullets. I knew that comment would "rattle" some devout 7mm fans. Dead is dead. The outfitter who told me that probably has killed more grizzlies than any person still alive. I think his point was, most people arent afraid of a 243 like they are there magnums...

    Best Rifle/Caliber for North American Hunting?

    I was working for a famous AK hunting guide & I asked him this very question. And this guy has seen & used them ALL.... 243win with-out flinching. WHY? He said everything you hit, dies as if struck by lightning. He hated the 7mm rem mag....WHY? Everything hit by it runs off, everytime...

    Two Hunting Rifles - Which Calibers?

    22 mag from rabbits to coyotes. (within 125 yds) 300 RUM with barnes -X bullets will drop anything in North American. out to 1000 yards. very flat shooting & hard hitting. bullet placement & type of bullet account for more kills than caliber.

    If you own a 22 lr and a 223 would you get a 22 magnum?

    22mag is a great weapon... for calling in fox & coyote with zero pelt damage. 223 abit much at 30 feet, I know, ive blown holes in alot varmints at close range with 222, 223, 22-250. If yer not in a rush & under 125 yds....22mag will drop them clean. Also good for head-shots at 75 yards on...
