Does anyone have an idea on what I should have my single six converted over to for a trail caliber?

I am doing a 10mm. Pete

Limited to one choice or first choice, the 10mm is tops...

might meet on the trail.

If I were in bear country, I'd run the 10mm. Around here, S. New England, I'd run the 250 GNR for coyote.

Actually. I'd have one made in 30 Carbine. Why?

Because I have a ton of 30 carbine brass and some ammo.

Lynn?

I had Gary make me a 327-32-20. It was posted. I love it.
But I was going to do 218 Bee? But reading all the odd ball calipers Huey, has Gary making? I am going with the10MM. Pete

Can’t wait for my 250 GNR

After following Huey’s posts, the 250 GNR seems to be fun and useful.

I really have been having fun with my 250GNR

And its difficult for others to comprehend just as it is for me to understand city folks.

But, my grandfather raised free range hogs. That is, they ran free and ate what they could find. There was salt cured meat, but no refrigeration. They ate what they could kill.

Few today really understand that. I mean we take Moon Pies with us to go hunting. In those says it wasn't so.

So, I grew up with tales of hog hunting. To them the 25-20 was nothing less than a God send.

Powerful enough to drop the biggest hog without spooking the herd. Many underestimate just how dangerous hogs can be. I've seen good hunting dogs killed and tires flattened by hogs attacking vehicles.


Now, the 250 GNR effectively duplicates the 25-20 of that era. If it worked then, it will work now.

Granted, my Dad always told me to shoot them between the eyes. Magazines writers today go for the biggest target and a Whiz-Bang SuperMag, but not me.

I've often wondered what those old folks could have done with the advances in guns and optics we have. Not to mention my Honda SxS.

My favorite rifle is an old Marlin 94 25-20, dad’s saddle

Gun. A great rifle to take out coyotes around the ranch and pick up some venison camp meat. I don’t have many guns but that rifle and a few other 25 cal rifles and GNR handgun barrels are my most used.

THAT IN PLACES IS MORE LIKE JUNGLE(IMPENETRABLE BRAMBLES & SUCH) AND WITH THE RECENT ARRIVAL OF THE FERAL HOGS -- I'VE GONE FROM A 22 MAG TO A 44 MAG -- MID LOADS OF HARD CAST - SOMETHING THAT WILL THOROUGHLY VENTILATE ANYTHING BUT THE BIG ONES
WE GET A BLACK BEAR OUT OF ARKANSAS ONCE IN A WHILE BUT THEY'RE NEVER BIG
SCARED OF THOSE PIGS THOUGH IF IT'S POINT & SHOOT TIME
I'M GOING THE CANNON ROUTE - NO POP GUNS FOR ME ANYMORE
