Destry's never been the same since he ate that rotten possum I served him... Perhaps Ken could engrave an Opossum on his Paa'kaa...

Interesting caliber selections, guys. The 30-40 Krag and 30-30 Winchester, some of the oldest smokeless powder rounds out there with some of the biggest rainbow trajectories and all to feed some beautifully built custom rifles!!! Why????

"Rimmed and Pleasant to Shoot" would be my reasons. I find it a bit difficult to get into the mood to take the boomers out to the range for a session. In my weakened condition, I more often choose one of the .22 Hiwalls and leave the big guns at home. If I had a nice 30-30 or 30-40 in a similar configuration, I might spend more time with the center fires.

I guess it would depend on ones style....since I like to get close to my critters, the .30-40 would work just fine for me. Have you read the article Seyfried wrote in DGJ about shooting pigs with the .32-40 and hardened lead bullets? Interesting stuff.

No and don't expect I will...
Have you tried spear chucking I hear you have to be pretty close.
