260 rem vs 7mm-08 vs 243 vs ?
ctafoya replied to creed_az_88's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
I was always a little leery on a .243 for big game until recently. Then I saw the damage from a factory 55gn bullet. I now load hornady sst 95gn and have no doubt they will get the job done. I do prefer a larger caliber/bullet, but its all about where that bullet hits at the end of the day. If she isn't comfortable with the big guns a .243 will work just fine. -

Why so small of a caliber? My wife is fairly small framed and she has a 7mm and has killed a deer with my 300wsm. Has she tried to shoot a larger caliber or is she afraid of the recoil? -
Yeah, I'm here.

Yeah I noticed that with my deer that the silver skin I didn't get did get stuck in the grinder. I must have got lucky or did a good job cleaning this meat doesn't smell. It actually smells better then my deer I got a few years back.

I guess I'll take this as a sign to not wait for the leftover list.

Thats awesome. Not only do i wish i can still hunt at that age i just hope to still be here and able to get around like that.

I 100% agree that you need confidence but over confidence or not being honest with your own abilities is what I think the topic was about.

Maybe they are lacing the food plots with cocaine for a better show?

Yup I thought I was the $ h! T when i got my early bull tag this year till I came home with nothing but memories. Learned a lot and now I know what I need to work on and what to expect next time. I don't think the article was a dig at anyone just that sometimes we can think we have every angle worked out. We kid ourselves thinking we have the upper hand on a hunt when we never really do.

Gained a little back from what i lost elk hunting but lost it again packing my boys pigs out this weekend.

Last year we hunted off freeman road on the north side of black mountain. Didn't see any pigs but had a lot of sign. It was cold the weekend we were able to hunt. Supposed to be a little hotter this time around. Should i look for a new area or just stick to my plan on the shady side of the mountain. I was thinking about taking a trip from the south side and work up the washes into the mountain also to try to get these kids a shot at something.
