naturegirl Report post Posted November 5, 2014 I'm assuming after shooting one with my 270 (150gr setup for deer) the preference to go with the guns that have been mentioned is so it leaves a smaller hole and flies flatter. Is the 270 out of the question even with a smaller grain bullet? I've killed a pig with 130 gr same gun and the hole was still. I don't reload Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muledeerarea33? Report post Posted November 5, 2014 I've used a 22 rifle, 22 mag pistol, 223wssm, 243, 270, 30-06, and a rem 1100 with #4. Oh and my truck twice. But my favorite is with a .357 herret TC pistol, 14" barrel that I inherited. Loading cast bullets. Gun is on the money at 400 yards! It's one of those guns that you can't understand why it's so accurate but you never question it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LifeFeedsOnLife Report post Posted November 6, 2014 For you guys shooting the .204, what size bullets are you using? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
creed_az_88 Report post Posted November 6, 2014 39 and 32 grain v max's typically. They're deadly. Never had a runner after shooting either bullet. Have had a few runners using lubalox coated silver tips follow up shots did the trick but I quit shooting them and only shoot v max's now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
