Matapuercos Report post Posted July 19, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lancetkenyon Report post Posted July 19, 2016 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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matapuercos Report post Posted July 19, 2016 Big or Bust seriously? I guess I should have specified. What I meant was if for the first couple of days I couldn't get close then I would switch 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ghottle Report post Posted July 19, 2016 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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goinhuntn Report post Posted July 19, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
