Title: Hand Cannon
Post by: hunter22 on December 26, 2013, 11:31:37 AM

I took two bucks and two coyotes this fall with a .270 I had not hunted in over 25 years.

I now only have a doe tag left and plan to hunt the last couple days of our modern gun season with a .30 Herrett Thompson Center mounted with a 2X7 Burris pistol scope. I took a 5X5 Mule Deer buck with this combo many years ago.

Great wildcat cartridge for the contender Rickey. I ended up with a 7x30 Waters in my Contender for whitetail when I was looking at them.
 Good luck!

Rickey

That will be fun, with the Contender! My hand cannon,  .375 JDJ in my Contender. Taken numerous deer and two Bison with it. Want to try it on a  bull Elk, in the next year or two.

Pretty 0.270! The hand rifle will be fun!
