    Whitetails and .300 Win Mag

    Thanks all for the advice- looks like I will end up using the .300. Y'all eased my mind about it not being too much gun. I will re-post later with a hopeful success picture.

    Whitetails and .300 Win Mag

    I typically hunt whitetails with my 7mm-08 with 139 grain bullets. However, I don't think I'm going to have enough time to hit the range before I go hunting to ensure it's still on. So, my question to you is- do you think a .300 win mag with 180 grain trophy bonded tip is too much for a...

    Big Fin's Favorite Breakfast - antelope heart

    Are you a true sportsman? How would you handle this situation?

    right handed left eye dominant

    I too am right handed and left eye dominant. I was taught at an early age to shoot left handed and have never looked back.
