Re: Preferred PA deer caliber
I'd like to take one with the .52 caliber percussion rifle with the 38" long barrel and one turn in 28" rifling.
Uses paper patched 500 grain bullets.
Need to put one of those Malcolm Leatherwood scopes on it though.
Eh, maybe some day.

Re: Preferred PA deer caliber
I've never seen a deer while deer hunting. Ever! I could have been out there with a slingshot for all it mattered.

Re: Preferred PA deer caliber
Why is .308 grouped together with 54r?
