Dunno it was the .30-30 or 20 ga. Several tons with each.

270 WCF. Started in 1979 when I got a Ruger M77 for Christmas. It was my only big game rifle for a lot of years. There's probably 35-40 deer fell to it's devastating effects.

Not asking for your favorite, not asking which one is best, what cartridge have you taken the most game(medium game and up) with?
Let's see how they stack up. We'll come up with a list and add it up Wednesday night.
8x57js First - define "game"... If P-dogs fit - then the 22-250.. If you mean NA big game, then deer with a .264WM..

30-06. But looking back it was unnecessary. I could've done all the same stuff with a 7mm-08 or even a 6.5 Swede. I was a product (victim?) of the PA 30-06 mindset of which I'm no longer a disciple.
