    Girl Gun?

    back to the question though......consider a Stevens bolt action rifle - if you go for a 30-06 you could download (within the safe lower limit though). Beauty of the Savage system is that with a simple barrel nut tool, or even a monkey wrench, and a go gauge you can swap between barrels yourself...

    Girl Gun?

    GRIZZLY WITH A 270????? omg, with a 375 chaser perhaps? I'm not disrespecting the 30-30, plenty use them down here and honestly for a big sambar its probably borderline. With the thick scrub in the bush here the difference with an animal expiring after 50m or 500m is significant; empty...

    calibers - confusion

    As zhyla states; its just a name. Some rounds reflect the actual bore size as in the .303 Brit and all 300's. Others reflect the groove diameter e.g. 308Win others are close but neither the bore, groove nor proj size such as 307Win or 460 Weatherby. 404 Rimless NE (Jeffery) is actually .412 bore...
