[QUOTE="RUFFIAN R - NY, post: 2413230, member: 121836"] length that's a good one ! Depends on individual and the place / conditions on which one is hunting. Wooded as in north east 20-22-24 in and maybe shorter if using a 30-30 , 44 mag, 35 Rem,358's 44-40 in heavy wooded regions. I go as long and some of mine carry a 28 inch tube for hunting and long range shooting 30-32 in tubes and that depends on the round one is using. 30-378 WBY, 300 Wby, 25-06 , 6.5-300 Wby, 338 Lapua. 338 Win Mag and 7mm Rem mags, 280's & 270's , 7x57 ,243's, 257' 6.5cm, 6ppc, and hunting what ?? elk ,mule's, white tail, goats, rams. bears, pigs, varmints etc etc and where ?? open country, canyons, desert, forest . My hunting partner only carried a 264 Win Mag and he took goats, rams, elk and everything in between, out West ,Mid West South West Idaho ,Wyoming, Colorado ,Montana, NY,PA Maine, BC,NWT, Alberta,- he could shoot, so its up to the guy that's going to carry and shoot that rifle and just how good of a shot one is.. Bullet placement is the name of the game. So get out there and shoot straight & TRUE . Good hunting and shooting to all. [/QUOTE]
