Over the last fifty years, our little party in Michigan (eleven guys, one gal) have taken deer with all of the following:
.303 Enfield (sporterized) .30/30 (six different guns--both Winchester and Marlin) .308 (two) .30/40 Krag (don't ask) .30/06 (two) 7mm Mag .270 .243 .357 Magnum (not a rifle, I just thru that in cuz it was me) .444 Marlin .35 Remington .300 Winchester Mag As well as various .50 and .54 cal muzzleloaders, and 12, 16 and 20 Ga shotguns. I could go into long and boring details about each one, and how each owner swore by what he was using, until he bought another. In the off season we discuss calibers and loads like the Lions discuss quarterbacks, and it's always interesting to see who shows up with what. The .270 and the .06 have been the only "stayers", though. I have a daughter just coming up on hunting age, and I am seriously considering a .270 or .280, mainly because I don't own one yet. As to Mustangs, '65, '75 and '79, but they're all gone now.
