Title: Whitetail hunting
Post by: Randysonia on April 02, 2021, 10:11:41 AM: I purchased a Magnum Research BFR Revolver in 30-30. 7 1/2" barrel with a Ultradot Matchdot Red Dot scope and a nice Triple-K chest holster I've always wanted to hunt Deer with a Pistol. Especially Whitetails. If I can find one anymore. What do do think? :dunno:

Sounds like it would be a fun rattling setup

It would also be a great way to take a bear this fall. Good luck and lets see pics of that BFR.....I have looked at them in the 45/70 for bear but figure my lever action works fine. :tup:

I have wanted to do this for some time, and this year might be the year, now that we are mostly finished with our new construction.

Exactly- good rattling setup, or at any point if you have a stand or blind along a well-used trail!
