7x57 with 160 gr bullets or 8x57 with 200+ gr bullets. "Isn't it pretty to think so." | |||

Oh yea, I forgot about the 375 Ruger, although I don't have one - yet. It would qualify as non-magnum and rimless, and could turn out to be a favorite for many in Alaska. Say, Gumboot, is the term "over kill" an oxymoron, sort of like "normal Alaskan"? Once, I tried to shoot a squirrel in the head with a 338. It wasn't as easy as one may think. I had to shoot at the little bugger three times before I hit the limb it was sitting on, and the splinters killed it.

One time a friend in Sitka knocked a forked horn out cold with my 500 A-Sq. and the bullet passed over its head .. the deer came to when he started to cut it,s throat ..... It was very exciteing for a while ....When he got hold of the rifle again and shot the deer again it took the bulk of its noggin off ....600 gr Barnes Originals @ 2300 fps from about 20 feet away ....He was shooting down a steep slope in the timber @ the head of Silver Bay , Thats why he shot over ....Plus an unfamilar rifle ... .If it can,t be grown , its gotta be mined .... | |||

I would have to go with the timeless classic!! 270 win. Then again the 06 is really hard to beat. | |||

3-way tie: .256 Mannlicher (not M/S), 7x65-R, and .318 WR. If Had to pick only one, .318 WR. If it had to be one of NA origin, "Dirty-'06". | |||
