.308 garand
Member
I am needing to downsize my gun collection. So I am selling my bolt action .223 and one of my .308s. The guns are used for varmints out to 400yds and deer and wild hogs. I have yet to see a bear, elk or moose in west Texas so I am not really concerned with being able to take that kind of game. I have narrowed my chooses down to 2 options.
Would you:
A: Buy a .270 to take the place of the .223 and .308
or
B: Buy a .44 mag revolver to hunt deer and hog and use my Savage 10fp in .308 for varmints and longer shots on deer and hog.
The longest shot I have taken a hog out is 80yds. Most of my kills are under 30yds.
I do reload so ammo selection isn't that big of deal.
Carrying my 12lb. 10fp isn't that big of deal as most of my stands not that far to walk and easy to get to.
I currently don't have a pistol.
So what would you do?
Thanks,
Justin
