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.

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.
