[QUOTE="davkrat, post: 959708, member: 6452"] Agreed. Like I said a rifle based off an '06 that can efficiently throw a 130-180 grain bullet will probably cover you for anything in North America. And yeah the .243 could work too. Gun nuts like to split hairs :) It all depends on what side of the envelope you want to favor. But just about anything will work under some circumstance. Not from me. When it comes to putting meat in a pot a .22 or 12 gauge are hard to beat. If you have to hump 500 rounds over a mountain on top of all the gear needed for an extended backpacking stay the .22 would win every time. Inuit and Eskimos have reportedly done quite well for decades relying heavily on the .222 [/QUOTE]
