Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Single Shots Hunting success with single shots

Thanx Sharpsguy. IMHO, the 45-110 IS a first class big game cartridge. As for hunting with the original, I HAD to do it!! It got wet in the rain, it got banged on the stock in the woods, but it was and is a hunting rifle. I am very pleased to relate that all the other hunters were using 300 ultramags, 300 Winnies, a 300 weatherby and a big 7 mag. NONE of them dropped their moose with just one shot. They were using Accubonds, Failsafes and Noslers. It was very satisfying that a cast paperpatched low tech slug hammered the moose (like you said) like the Hammer of Thor. Believe me there are now some men and a woman who will never disparage our artillery pieces ever again
