What's fun is shooting a 50 from a tank. Like a big ole fire-breathing garden hose. Just walk it in. LOL I will pass better to be behind it than infront of it. Bors

The hunting terrain is flat and heavily wooded here. Unless you're on a gas line or over a bean field, no need for a long range rifle here. A 30-30 or a .44 mag will get the job done here. Sold my .308 for that reason. My "long range" zombie gun is a .223 Mini-14 with a ARS HB 1/9 twist. I can hit a pie plate out to about 500 m on a good day with 62gr.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

After the 50 I ran a magazine through an 1880s 45-70 gatling gun. WOW talk about kicking up a lot of stuff down range. Puts bullets all over the place.

Yep it's about the same in Missouri 200 yards max mostly 50-100 yard stuff. .44 mag is a great gun thinking about getting another one. Gave my super blackhawk to my dad that left me a 70s vintage virginian dragoon, needs a little work but it's a good gun. Bors

I have a good friend who uses a Marlin 1894 .44mag. He stopped using his 308 Tikka years ago. The .44 is a very good close range deer rifle. I have a Win 1894 in .44 magnum. His is slightly more accurate than mine, but either one is good enough out to about 150 yds.

Mine was inaccurate and heavy. As long as you keep the loads within reason the S&W is fine. An occasional bear load won't hur it. Just my experience. Others have had the opposite happen.
