    Got a text from my neighbor wanted to know if this was my boat tied off  at my dock this morning. 

    I said no  I have no idea who's it Is  find  out and let me know I said .

    So can I keep it ?

    If the owner does not come back right away , you think .

    What are the laws about people leaving crap or parking / docking stuff on your property.

    On a scale of 1 to 10 how do you rate a 44 mag in a rifle as a good brush gun ?

    Hunter007, I believe the .30-06 lever BLR has a longer action, longer receiver and weighs more than the same rifle chambered in a short action like .308.  Since you want a brush gun to be light and fast, but are looking for long range power, the .308 version would be a better choice IMHO.  No real loss of power compared to a .30-06, but lighter and shorter when the two rifles are stood side by side.

    Thanks didn't even see that .

    Now that you mention that went back and looked .

    And saw they have it in 

    358 win short action 

    Listed in same weight and shorter barrel like the 308 . looking at the numbers 358 looks awesome.  

    Maybe if  I  switch calibers  I should go with that  I think  don't know yet , Got to go look at those again when I get a chance in the gun shop . One notable down side with the 358 win , Maybe availability of ammo in stores .  But  I guess I can live with that .

    I'm surprised that caliber is not more popular reading  about it .

    The last 10 years, I have seen an explosion of New Spring Turkey Hunters out there. I think many of these new Turkey Hunters are Hardcore Deer Hunters who want to give this Spring Thing a shot. As a result-- the Birds are much more Wary on the Public lands. 

    I think public land spots go hot then cold in cycles. 

    Once word gets out guys are having success there  they get busier then the places get hunted out . Hunters start to give up going to those spots and the cycle repeats .

    I couldn’t care any less about what you hunt with or buy but I find it hilarious that every “negative/ mixed” comment came from people whom have never killed a deer with a 44mag and every single person that commented that has killed a deer with one all gave very positive reviews.

    I don't , know now,   I saw blr not the takedown version in cables a few weeks ago was in 308 picked it up seemed pretty light well balanced to me .

    Made me second guess myself  ask my father about it he said just find one in 30-06 .Like the other hunting guns you have , he said  it's more   versatile and be done with it . I think I'm just going to go with the tradition deer caliber . Plus I like the fact that it has a magazine .

    Seems like a better deal also more  powerful gun for  around same price point .

    Then I guess  I could do what you said and just get gunsmith to cut it down shorter to 16 anyway if I want.  

    It's all good .

    First off how would one know you wanted that model you never stated that anywhere... 2nd you went from a lever carbine to a 30-06 lol

    Was not important just wanted to know 44 mags killing power at moderate ranges for deer  in a rifle  . 

    Didn't think it was important to mention I wanted a takedown.

    all the negative / mixed comments  talked me out of it basically , the 44 mag .

    Wanted that  make and model 

    Only comes in 357 and 44 

    Then they make another version in 45-70 that's a take down that's it .

    I'm just going with the Browning blr takedown in 30-06 plus I like the fact that it has a magazine .

    Not as light and short as I would  of liked  but it is what it is .

    There is no way I'd recommend it to anyone for ANY deer hunting situation in comparison to the scores of much better calibers available.  Plus, go to a Walmart or somewhere else if you were in a pinch for some extra hunting ammo for it.  Good luck.

    After reading all this and other articles I have decided just to get what I know the most about    30-06  and get it in the blr takedown .

    Not as light or compact but better then what I got now still

    I suppose I could get it cut to 16 later on by a gunsmith  if I want anyway .

    Now to find one  physically in a store  just to see what I'm buying that  is a different story :(  

    Went to 3 different gun shops and nobody has one in stock they can order it of course.

    But I like to check it out to make sure its what I want  first .

    Bro it’s a muzzleloader you don’t even need to fill out a NICS check to buy it


    Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yea I know  but the same thing happened when I bought a crossbow and airguns online.

    Every time same crap  

     

    And it even looked like they opened the box to see what the f it was one time .

    A lot of that stuff finds it's way in NYC I think before going out to different parts of the state .

    I bet its something to do with that causes the delays.  Plus the online shipper may be double checking  rules and laws in new york .  Has to be one or the other or both at least that's been my experience.

    So I would like the opinion of the group on this one, so I ordered a new Muzzleloader online last night. Yes on thanksgiving. I decided I wanted it ASAP so i can sight in while at camp for work next week. I decided to pay for overnight shipping $90. Now I get it I ordered on Thursday a holiday and it’s not coming Friday I’m 100% ok with that. I just got tracking info and it says it’s shipping out Monday and I will be getting it Tuesday. To me this is complete horse shit. It should have shipped today and I should be getting it tomorrow. Even Monday I wouldn’t complain. But for me to pay for overnight shipping and get it 5 days later is insane.
