NWI Ingo General Post part 15

It is a fabulous round, but for some reason the State specifically carved it out. They sell them everywhere to unsuspecting noobs like me.

It's definitely the round I settled on after doing a bit of research. I was going to be the next noob to fall for it so thanks for saving me from that! Back to the drawing board for me, I suppose.

Do not buy a .270, I repeat DO NOT BUY A .270!

You cannot hunt with it in Indiana. You cannot resell it in Indiana. I bought the prettiest scoped .270 for $400 and then found out I couldn't hunt with it in Indiana. I tried to sell it for a couple of years and finally sold it to the same LGS for $200.

However, if you do buy one, I have 200 rounds of several loads that I intended to test to see what it liked, all premium. I paid an average of $22 a box, but will sell any for $11 a box or all for $100.


I take back everything I said about not buying a .270 if you intend to use it out of state.

Actually, after doing a bit more research, I found out that .270 is in fact legal to hunt with in Indiana. They changed the law somewhat recently, last year, I think.

So I just might be hitting you up for some ammo after all

The .270 is not allowed on public land but is ok for private land as far as hunting goes. So all depends on where you plan to hunt. If you uave access to private property the 270 is good to go

Damnit! Lol

These laws are unnecessarily restrictive. You can use ___ caliber and ___ caliber but not the one in between those two. For what reason, who knows?

I look forward to hunting deer with a SCAR17 this year.

 

[2A_Tom]

It is the ballistics. I would go with a .308. The ballistics are just a bit under the .270 and are good enough to get a good to kill anything in this region humanely.

No one NEEDS a full semi auto death gun to hunt poor little Bambi! What we really need is plate carriers for deer paid for with an exorbitant tax on hunters.

If a deer has the chance, it would eat you and everyone you cared about.

6.5 Grendel for the kill shot!

I also want to take deer with my 6.5 Grendel this year.

I would to. Just need to work on some private property for that. Have the private property for crossbow hunting but its in Hobart city limits so cant firearm hunt it.

This does help, thank you. I also just contacted DNR who helped explain things a little. At least how it's illegal but not why.

I guess my next question is, who's got some land they wouldn't mind me roaming around on?

In all seriousness, I am still interested in just tagging along with someone and learning what I can. I guess I will continue the search for my first rifle in the meantime.
