[QUOTE="Tbone, post: 220336, member: 10132"] What Grit said, and you don't need a cannon for these little guys. I've taken many with the 25/06 and a 120 gr. Sierra. The lighter the bullet-weight to caliber, the more meat you'll loose. A well-placed shot, behind the front-shoulder, will do the trick. Personally, this year I will use a 45/90 black-powder cartridge rifle, with a full-case of the holy black and a cast lead bullet at around 1400 fps. No wasted meat here :). It leaves a nice round 1" exit-hole. That load is good out to 300 yards or more, using barrel sights. Best of luck, Jim [/QUOTE]
