I think those states is why the .350 was invented. I had hoped and lobbied for Illinois to join them. Thought the .350 might be perfect in rifle for my wife and young son. Finally gave up and bought three new model stainless camo Savage 220s. Mounted Leupold 3x9 firedot scopes on them and been pleased. 8 year old son heart shot a doe at 80 yards and I shot a button buck at 140 last year. Longest shot I've made on deer was running doe at 160 with Redhawk .44. I think the Savage 220 and SW .460 should each be capable at 200+. That is probably enough around here in farm country; but was wanting softer recoiling option for them.
