[QUOTE="shaughn, post: 2950582"] I have convinced several family members and their friends, who come out to the family farm with exclusively LR rifles that the 7.62N bolt gun that I have in the hunting shack, is the go to rifle should something pop out at short range, shack doubles as the blind and shooting shack, 1500 meters, with food plot and back stops, no point in vaporizing Mr. Deer with a bullet that really shouldn't even be considered at less than 600. I am sitting out there with my Sharps in 45 - 90 with a 540 PP bullet and a compressed load of BP and 300 yds or less, I'm good, but my 300 win mag is there too loaded up with 190 ABLR at 3000 fps should a really big bodied deer step out at range beyond what the sharps or the other rifle can reach, and I am sitting on several cull tags this year, so we shall see.
