[QUOTE="ecprete, post: 946731, member: 49358"] Hunted off horses for 20+ years. Started with a bolt gun, then, like Elkhunter, went to a Browning B-78 single shot. Thinner(no bolt), shorter and more compact than a bolt gun. Mine was a 25-06 rechambered to .257 Weatherby to reach out there a little farther. Shot antelope, deer, elk and moose--and never needed more than the first shot. Doing it again, I would probably step up in caliber for a little heavier bullets--6.5 or 7mm. 30 magnums can be a little much in a lightweight, compact rifle. [/QUOTE]
