[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1378920, member: 25884"] There's alot to be said for the .270.....but, this is a rented farm and NO HUNTING allowed. The owner has a ton of money, bought it a couple of years ago, gets with all the programs for waterers and fences etc.. He is picky about some things to the point of ridiculousness, but there's all new fences and waterers for the cattle, nothing to fix or half-azz together, and no hunting allowed. You learn to roll with things if you want to keep the rent. Last year I have a feeling that the bear was a cub or else he has moved into this area after being pushed out of somewhere else. So, we just hauled the hay out of there. We won't winter any cattle there as it is a "bear" to get in and out of, driveway real steep and long to the pastures, and we don't want to deal with that in the bad weather. Michael works for VDOT and if/when there is snow, he pulls 12 hour shifts and so we don't need to be running all over to feed. Have a third pasture to rotate the cattle into there, so it will be close to Christmas when we finally have to move them out. We'll preg ck and wean off the calves and move the cows to the pasture closeby where we calve out in the spring. [/QUOTE]
