Primarily when younger, I hunted dense timber moving slow,stopping often .Now at my age,it is mostly sit and watch.I hunt muzzle loader , 50 cal, because I like the warmer weather, but my primary rifle is a Pre-64 Winchester, Model 70 30-06 using 180 gr Partitions in open country and 220 gr RN in close areas.Went the 7mag route for a few years and found it didn't kill the many deader. More than few have fallen to the .06
