The other day I went grouse hunting with a BRNO o/U 12 gauge 22 Savage HiPower, you know, in case I stumbled across a buck while I was out. *Note to self- Don't go grouse hunting during deer season. Your eyes aren't what they used to be with iron sights.
*sigh*
I usually hunt with a Savage 99 in 284 for deer and bear, but am trying to mix it up by taking others out. Problem is, you only get a chance at a good blacktail buck once in a great while and I don't want to miss my chance by carrying something like a 38-55 carbine or a 32-40 rifle. If ranges were 40 yards sure, but you gotta shoot long sometimes. It's a real conundrum.
