Are you a member of the Century Club?

[kjohn]

I have hunted with: 32 Winchester, 30-30, 8x57, 7.62x54R, .303 British, 12, 20 gauge, .22. Current whitetail rifle is a nice old 94 in 32WS. Next will likely be a 1920 Savage takedown in 30-30.

These new-fangled cartridges like that there .308 came along after I was born.

 

[brybenn]

22lr and 45/70

 

[LeRoy]

45-70 Shiloh Sharps, 9.3x62 Husky, 30-30 and 38-55Win, 12 gauge, 22LR, and the great 303 Brit, with which I shot my first deer with, 41 years ago.

Later....

 

[pisces-guy]

.303 and 30.06...the .270 is only a decade away...the .22LR would also qualify...

[nowarningshot]

Thanks to the help of a bunch of members many of my century club have moved on, and in a few cases new examples have turned up that need to be blooded.

22lr
220 swift...i think its 100
6.5x55 swed
7x57
303-comes in handy if one cant find the jack handle
30-06
375 h&h

Some of those have left, but all have taken game animals. Trying to stop being the patron saint of reloader only calibers. Lots of oddballs that are obscure but not 100 yet. Some guns that can eat at Walmart are OK too.

... As a wise old Scottish Leprechaun once told me after playing that game: "Don't let school get in the way of your education laddy!" I think he then stomped on my head & stole my wallet?

Really... you GAVE him the wallet, now didn't you???

30-30, 6.5x55, 303 brit, 22 s,l,lr, 12ga, 20ga, umm wait a second, is there a special fudd cluster or something for never taking game with a cartridge newer than 100yrs old?

 

[almauser]

Anything x57 Mauser will kill anything alive! My 8x57 did in a lot of gophers and at least one Jack Rabbit. I've got a 6.5x57 coming that will do wonders for Blacktails and Black Bears, targets too.

 

[Muskyhunter1]

Yup a Winchester Model 94 Circa 1899 in 38-55 went out into the woods with me a few times last fall. Hope to shoot a bear this spring with it. Bought it for 50 bucks.
