I thought I'd start a list of legal cartridges for hunting deer with a rifle during firearms season.
If you think of others, post up and I'll edit the list from time to time.
.357 Magnum
.357 Maximum
.357/44 Bain & Davis
10mm Magnum
.38-40 (.38 WCF)
.41 Magnum
.44-40 (.44 WCF)
.44 Special
.44 Magnum
.445 Super Mag
.45 Colt
.45 Winchester Magnum
.454 Casull
.458 SOCOM
.480 Ruger
.50 Action Express
.500 Magnum
Others possible wildcats I'm looking into:
.35x39mm (7.62x39mm necked up to accept .358" rifle bullets)
There is also a 9x39mm Russian cartridge, but it's doubful with current laws that any of these guns will ever get imported... I think they are all machine guns.
.357 Auto (10mm Magnum Brass necked down in a .357 Sig die)
If you think of others, post up and I'll edit the list from time to time.
