If what I saw at the Cabela’s here in town is any indication, you shouldn’t have any problem getting 30.06, there was plenty on the shelf.C-dub wrote: ↑Wed Sep 23, 2020 10:56 pm
After talking with the guys that are gonna take me, they said each one they've taken the past few years has been under 100 yards. I figured I'd go old school with iron sights. I have three rifles I could go with.
1. Garand
2. Enfield
3. Swiss K31
I had forgotten about the K31 and figured I'd go with the Garand, but would take them both out to the range and see which one does better at 100 yards and if I would be good enough at 100 yards myself. Then I remembered the K31. Then I remembered I didn't have any ammo for it after I shot up the only two 20-round boxes I bought when I acquired it 5 years ago. Wow! I thought it was only 2-3 years ago, but just checked. Anyway, I've been looking for ammo for it for a couple months now and finally found some online at Target Sports last night and ordered 100 rounds.
I'd really like the Enfield to be the better rifle with iron sights at 100 yards. It was my Father in Laws and he never hunted with it. However, I'll be happy if I'm good enough with either of the three to be sure I'll do right for the deer if I get my shot.
Good luck in the woods this year :)
