Cheere up...at least you [bleep] ain't having to suffer our schit weather,here along The Milford. Took me 3hrs to shovel the snow outta the driveway and visibility is nil,as of minutes ago. It's rough! You're having beautiful weather and its pouring here and will be for the next four days they say. Go figure. At least I got in a 20 round "range session" with the .270 yesterday before the rain set in.

Over the years, I have not seen the need for a big magnum. Personally I am going toward the smaller ones. I do have a 9.3X62, and that will be my big rifle. My hunting is mostly deer, so a 6.5 is all I need. Had several magnums in the past, now they are gone. Still have the 300 H&H pre-64 that was willed to me, that one will stay around for sentimental reasons.

I wonder how many drinks you had to buy those guys to get them to act like your friends and get your pic snapped with them. That is sooooo you to post that hoping all the Fire guys will think that's cool. The douchebag to the left of Botcher in this pic is a drug addict. A total loser. Botcher, You ever let your kids shoot big bucks? Those Sitkas score what? 105 tops? And thats great! For the species they are trophys.. Here's one for ya. 95 pounds of boned out meat. I was gonna let this one walk waiting for the kid to plow it. Straight up Blacktail.. I wouldnt pose in a picture with that worthless [bleep] if you paid me to.. You ever come through Southwest Washington? Let me know. I'll gladly teach ya some manners. And then I'll carry you into the bar and buy you a drink. "Joint manipulation" is a favorite. But I feel sorry for midgets so I'll take it easy on ya..

Mebbe you'll go FULL Retard again and "tell" me about The Rifle and such too. Laffin'! I mean your Feeshin' Gear expose was rather [bleep] awesome. Laffin'! I enjoy you Stupid [bleep]'s Imagination and Pretend,nearly as much as you do. Whattya figure to Whine about next and where do you figure the next round of Excuses will take you?!? More "bounty"? You "do" almost as "much" in a year,as I do an afternoon...'course I'm being rather generous,if only to fuel your Imagination further. Congratulations?!? Laffin'! How late does your roommate(Mother),usually let you stay up and look at pictures?!? I'm crying,I'm laughing so hard!!! Knock it out of the [bleep] Park and mention what you do for a "living" again. Laffin'! The drugs ain't doin' you no favors Toots. Just sayin'.

The body on that Blacktail had more meat on it than either of these Washington whitetails. I didn't end up living life with a view like this on Welfare.

That's a great Blacktail and the two Whitetail are not bad either. A Desert Mule Deer killed in Nov. 2009 A better pic of the antlers.

Now you guys are talking my language... love those blacktail, especially those Sitkas with orange. Good job letting the youngster bag that buck Shag. Like the litter-mate to the little guy I shot last year, except across the Big C from you. Decent buck, but not worthy of a mount. 7-08 took his head clean off Still looking for a heavy 20" typical on the coast... Jason

Regarding the OP's original question...
When I was a youngster I remember my Gramps telling me about the 22-250 and 220 Swift being used for deer during the Depression-era. They still liked their aught-sixes though.

I tell myself I've fully recovered from magnumitis, but then I started counting 6.5 WSM 7 mag 7 STW 300 H&H 300 Win Mag 325 WSM 338 RUM and darn if a Rem. 700 Classic in 300 Weatherby follow me home the other day. Whoever owned it before me magna-ported it, bedded it and did a trigger job. Even thought to put a scope on it. No WAMs, but ya' can't have everything. Think I'll go burn a little powder. That way if any LR dinos show up at the "Petting Zoo", I'll be ready. Best, GWB

Loading
180 gr. ballistic tips and partitions over rl-19 and IMR7828
200 gr Accubonds over RL22.
Will load up several 200 grainers over 7828 now that you mention it.
Best,
