I don't know how many deer I and my buddies have hauled out with one of these carts the last several years. It also fits under the tonneau cover on my truck. https://gorillamade.com/product/gor4ps-gor4ps-c/

I don't give a rip about retro ARs, but I do love the reference.

FWIW, magazines seem to be the key to making 350L run smoothly. IME, the Wilson Combat magazines are the best.

Yes, I have one. When I can't see the peep any more, I will mount it.

Octagon.

I'll save you the trouble. The softest 6.5 bullet I know of is the Nosler 129 grain ABLR. That one is rated to expand down to 1300 FPS. Everything else I am aware of requires 1600 FPS impact velocity or higher to expand. 900ish is not going to expand. You can kill a deer with that, but I...

Upgrade your sights and fiddle around with loads. I have a Rossi that cannot be scoped, but a peep and a fiber optic front sight work well to the limits of my vision. I mostly shoot 38 target loads out of it. An inch at 50 yards is pretty typical until my eyes get tired.

The frequent panics and the need to stock up are what they are. Frankly, I lay blame at the feet of the gun grabbers. Otherwise we wouldn't feel compelled to go nuts stockpiling stuff. It is what it is. Make sure you have what you need for the next few years and stop worrying about it.

Thanks. These are not for me.

Depending on how much effort they put into these bullets, they may have different expansion characteristics for different cartridges.

Are they as explosive as in higher velocity cartridges?

I have been fooling around with cast loads in 350 Legend at low speeds, eventually shooting for subsonic. Last year I ginned up a cast load based on a 207 grain bullet that chronos at 1150 FPS. We use this load for beaver hunting where the distances are generally short and you need a bit of...

I really like 35 Rem, but it has become expensive to shoot even with reloads. Fortunately, 350 Legend is extremely similar (I even use the same mold for cast bullets), and ammo, components, etc. are everywhere.

Is your marlin a 39a? If so, you have a bunch of options with quieter ammo. The Aguila subsonic is very quiet out of a longer barrel like the 39a and very accurate. The argument for a pellet gun is that you can buy very quiet suppressed rifles without jumping through nfa hoops. Traps work...

I'd regard 100 yards as my limit simply due to vision limitations. That said, the nice thing about the bigger bore balls is that what would ordinarily a marginal hit is a very dead deer.

Quite. There is a property I can use a ML on, but I've yet to get closer than within 150 yards of a deer there and mostly iy is 200+ yard shots. Other places I routinely kill deer at 50 yards.

Heh, I would not hesitate at 100 yards with a 58 ball.

I have a pointer who is nuts for game, but I am afraid to take her in the field because I am pretty sure she would be gone.

Hugger, I assume you are using a scope at longer range. I am not allowed scopes in ML season here and with my vision about 100 yards is what I can do. I am exclusively a percussion and round ball hunter, so 100 yards is fine with all of that.

Sure, but get within 100 yards and its pretty similar. The wide open spaces make getting within range really challenging, but huge swaths of the country involve 50 or so yard shots as a matter of course. As long as you can make your one shot count, its not that different.
