I pack my hard case to 49# and pull foam out and replace with clothes as padding. Once I had a rifle, handgun, bow, ammo, arrows, and clothes in there. You’re legal to have other stuff in there. I do pull bolts and put them inside a pair of socks so it’s easy to X-ray the guns are unloaded.

My neighbors kid has killed ducks, doves, geese, swans, and turkey with his 20 gauge Tristar. That thing just keeps on ticking.

For those who’ve gone to a smaller caliber, are you also shooting suppressed?
This was my first year hunting with a suppressor on a 30 cal. It made shooting much more enjoyable with the lower recoil and concussion. I’ve read the threads and know the smaller (proper) bullets are effective, but...
I’ve killed a bunch of whitetails with a 6.8spc I built. Very friendly set up for new shooters as well as there is very little recoil. Barrel is a little heavier than I should have done
