[QUOTE="bdlesh, post: 1594805, member: 109440"] I agree, for me a .270 would be a minimum. I like the larger bores as well. I know many will say they have seen game run away after being shot with a .300+whatever, so size doesn't matter. I would always want to be over gunned than under gunned. I usually shoot either a 7mm mag or 45/70 Marlin 1895. I do have other options, but keep pulling them out when hunting time arrives. I have killed many rocks,squirrels and pieces of paper of the years with my .22 , but I wouldn't take it hog hunting. [/QUOTE]
