I'd go with the .308. The .270 is a fine deer round, but the .308 will have more ammunition choices, and be more than enough to take any game at any distance you will encounter in MN.

You only need the one true caliber

And if you need to buy conversion kit and die set, this is an ok deal. Not great.

This is such a wonderful place to live

I'll keep eating at Chipotle. Since we're using WW@ imagery, Fatman and Little Boy need to be dropped out of a B29 at high altitude. Dumb.

try this- 1) reset the scope to middle of adjustment rage for height and windage. Do this by turning adjustment ring all the way to a stop.

Cool. When are you selling and how much?

I've gravitated to 231 as my "one size fits all" powder for .45ACP, 9mm and .38 Special. Tried TiteGroup, but it's too "mild to wild" for my taste. In .45ACP 231 provides a couple key benefits to new (and experienced) hand-loaders - 1) A wide range of safe charge weights 2) meter...

It's bad enough that this forum is being used to air dirty laundry. He screwed members of this forum, using the forum as a vehicle. T.P.F.K.A.M, aka Monschman (and whatever other screen name the thieving little vaginal wash container is now using) did same. It's not cool, it's not OK, and it's not ...
