Thread: Why My Deer Cartridge is Better than Yours

The 7.62x54 Russian is a good deer calibre. Not quite as impressive as the mortar a few posts back, but still... I stumbled upon the world of 'obrez' pistols - a hiatus in sanity brought about by a shortage of pistols and a surplus of Mosin-Nagant rifles. https://www.range365.com/gun-history...-bolt-actions/

Anyway, why the Russian - what about the old 303? Well some nutter already went there... A classic for deer, especially when they are 3 feet in front of you, and you don't want to wake the neighbourhood.

I like the old classics.
