Favorite Deer Caliber

[WildBuck]

Guess i would have to say my Savage .270.
It may be my Winchester .270 if i ever get time to go to the range to check it out.

 

[NotaVegetarian]

Something in a .30 caliber or larger, I am very partial to .308 all the way through .375 magnums.

 

[HuntinMan]

308 for me mainly cause I own one and shot it a lot. There are lots of good deer guns out there today, from 270 on up to the 30 cal.

 

[Perry Hayes]

I like the 308 as well.

 

[Buster]

my favorite is the 25'06

 

[Swamprat]

either a 308 or 280. just depends on what i feel like taking.

 

[leoparddog]

My favorite are the 30's (308 in specific) but it seems my 260 is blessed with good luck. I've killed my best bucks with it - using the 120gr NBTs that I talk bad about, the 260 and the 120gr NBTs have accounted for 2 good bucks in 3 years.

I still think the 30's are more effective though.

.270 WSM: shots are very accurate, strong, and long!

Deer Gun

anything in .257 for Ga. If going west anything in 7mm, have a remington .280 that I love.

 

[Deerhead]

I had a 270 win. and like it a lot

Bought a 308 and liked it

Now I am thrilled with my new 270 wsm

When I did gun hunt, it had to be any .308 caliber round, there is to large of a range of bullets to have any caliber near it. 55 gr through 260 gr, 30-30, .308, 30-06 you pick. Mostly 30-30

 

[duckbill]

My favorite is my old 7MM MAG. For Georgia deer, I load it with 140gr Sierra gamekings. If I need more punch, I load it with 160gr Sierras. I can even load it with 120's for Coyotes and such.

30-06

give me ole faithful 30-06 it will kill anything from deer to elk & moose to grizzly bear, but I also favor the 243

All time favorite is my 300 Win Mag, But my model 7 stainless in 308is one sweet puppy.

 

[Hunting Teacher]

Right now I am in love with my 6.5/284 but I will be a .308 fan till the grave. I pretty much like all centerfire rifle cartridges!

Gotta agree with ya there. I love my 7/08, but that 260 of my daughters is one deer killing machine!

I'd hate to have to pick between my Model 70 .270win or my Marlin .45-70.

I guess I'd have to say the .270 but the .45-70 sure does the job.

I'm glad I don't have to pick just one!

[biggabuck]

243 or 243 wssm. or old faithful 12ga 3in mag slug.they all get the job done.

 

[csgreen1]
