| Are you partial to .30? Or would you think on the 7mm Rem Mag? Behind the 30-06 I would think that it is one of the most popular Elk round, if not more popular then the 06. If not and bigger is better ... |

I am thinking about a guided Cougar hunt, thing is that I can't afford a $5000 bill to do so. Do you all know of anyone that does high success rate hunts that are reasonable?

My main reason for not picking the 257 Roberts, 257 Weatherby, 25-06 was the low selection of the .25 bullets. Far less available than the .243.
Thanks for the input though.

I bought this game for PC's and loaded it on the tower. Now it will run through a demo type thing but won't actually bring up a game screen. Anyone else had any problems with this game?
