[QUOTE="BillM, post: 4216050, member: 45785"] I've seen cast bullet (or boolit) loads for slugs down to 110 grain. I'm thinking you could get down in the 77 grain range with a slightly resized .32 Colt slug, and there is a 84 grain slug mold out there somewhere, too. I love me some 30-06... I've only taken one deer, and that was when I was 17, and it was a Muley. Barely not a fawn, but dressed out at 130 lbs or so. Once upon a time, I had a photo, but it was long, long ago, and far, far away, and in another universe. And before I enlisted in the USAF... ;) My younger brother has that rifle, now, a 1903 Springfield my dad sporterized himself, back when they were dirt cheap. I don't think he carved the stock, but he did inlet and glass-bed it, and the barrel was fully floated. [/QUOTE]
