Guns for muleys 2016

Recommended Posts

I don't know if there is a thread like this one on the mule deer forum like there is in the coues but if you end up with a mule deer tag, what gun are you planning on using this season to get that muley?

 

I'm using my Marlin 45-70. If I find that it's too hard to get close to the deer then I'll switch to my 30-06.

Well, since Taylor just drew a 12AE LATE hunt.......one of the following:

R700 in .260 Rem pushing 140 HVLD

R700 in 6.5 SLR pushing 140 HVLD

R700 in 7RM pushing 180 Hybrid

R700 in .300RUM. pushing 215 Hybrid

Depends on distance and hunting type for the day. Still hunting, either the .260 or 7RM. Glassing and shooting LR, 6.5 SLR or .300RUM depending on distance and conditions.

You can't go wrong with a .243 up to a 30-06. You put it in the bread basket and it will bring them down.

Lucky for me I won't have to decide on any gun to use since I can't draw a tag anywhere!!

If I did draw I would have used my Remington 270 or 243.
