[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 661573, member: 18849"] This is an interesting post I really would like to hunt a real "swamp" like the cyprus bogs of the south....Our "swamps" are a lot different up north... Some of our cattail bogs and beaver swamps up here are 1/4 mile or more across and my idea of a swamp rifle is a 25-06 or better yet a 6.5-06 with a good scope....Remember that Jack O'conner loved his .270 as his best "brush gun" ...His writings explained that all bullets are deflected by brush and a smaller caliber actually fits through a smaller hole in the brush.....He actually did tests shooting in the brush to "prove" his theory...Only a theory though because brush patches are like snow flakes the are never quite the same! Good post keep em comin, Bogboy [/QUOTE]
