I think we got this earth shaker question pretty well decided.

Answer is can you -- yes
Should you --- no.

ps just for the edification of the masses did you know that you can shoot lead bullet 38 specials in a 30/30.
Seen it done. Split cases but the bullet came out of the barrel.

You can almost shoot a .308 Win in a 25-06 also. The bullet will almost make it out of the barrel before the action blows up.

grin True Pat. I don't know how that lead 357 dia. bullet got squeezed down to 308 but it did.
I have no desire to do it but the guy I saw do it ran out of 30/30s and wanted to shoot a treed coon. Found a 38 cartridge in his pocke.

It has been so long ago I forget if he killed the coon or not.

This thread is getting badly sidetracked, and I'd like to bring it back on course.
The answer is yes, it'll work; but be sure to shoot for the heart/lung area only, and limit your shots to 300 yards.


I saw a movie where only the military and the police had guns. It was called Schindler's List.
