@Wolk please stop, you hunt with a 30-06 with 150gn bullets yet you’re on the internet telling people not to use a 243 because it’s velocity is too high and makes deer into jello. You do realize that your 06 with the ammo you shoot is within a few fps of a 243 with 95 or 100gn bullets.

If you care about the meat why not shoot 220gn bullets from your 06, that 500 fps would save you pounds of jello if what you’re preaching were true, although it’s not.

243, hands down, no question. I guess I must be the guy who only cares about antlers? (Wolc needs therapy). Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk

I switched to a 30/30 to save on some meat, along with a few other reasons.

In case you need reminding, don't shoot them in the hips with that grenade launcher. But if you do, give it to Wolc, he needs it for research purposes...

You don't use a hard shell for that thing?


To lay across back seat? Nah. Only when flying.

Check the stats. Westchester under 2% positivity. WNY 10-15% in some places. Do you guys know how to wash your hands?
