Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Canada Do you use a premium bullet for deer?

That's what I'd do too. Buy something on sale or at least cheap. I did own a NEF Handi in 30-30 and tried pointy bullets, but things didn't pan out.



This is very possible. After I came home from Europe and was posted Quebec, I was trying (unsuccessfully) to flog some of my work in magazines like OOOD, OC and Western Sportsman. I spent time making the rounds.


Bob Jones

My old military instructor, Robert H. Jones, (Sgt Bob, Capt Nemo) used to write for OOOD, BC Outdoors and some others. He'd drag me to the odd event. The last one before he moved to Vancouver Island was a hunting and fishing show at the International Centre in Mississauga. He was working the OOOD fishing pond where you could hook a plastic fish and win a prize - a lure, 1 yr subscriptions, etc. Good for the kids. Cheesy for the grown ups.

Anyway, it was bad timing on my part as the anti-gun rhetoric was at full tilt. Unless you were on staff at a magazine, you weren't going to get much published. I was still in the military and was not going to chance pulling the plug for two or three published articles a year!
