Any Suggestions?
« on: August 21, 2007, 04:42:22 AM »
Hello everyone.  This is my first post so bear with me.

I am looking to buy a rifle for the deer season this fall.  Here in Indiana they are now allowing us to use a few pistol type of rounds in a rifle.  Does anyone have any suggestions on what caliber might work the best?  I am looking for accuracy out to and a little past 100 yards.  357mag, 41mag, 44mag?

I already have a '94 .30/.30 and like to shoot it even though I haven't in a while.  Unfortunately this caliber isn't legal to use yet.

Thanks

If you don't reload, the Marlin 1894 in .44 Remington Magnum would probably be your best bet.  The Puma in .454 Casull is pretty cool too.
