You’re a guide. Now that you are the shooter. I am curious. What caliber and round type will you use?

I've been on several hunts in that unit as I live here.( I'm just a water bottle holder though .. preferably empty!!) First time I've had a tag ... can't get on the part I'm gonna hunt until end of July..that's the way they work it..keeps the swag out until go time.. there are some parts of the unit that aren't the res though that hold goats also...10 day season..lots of time..little pressure...don't get me wrong. First minute first day..right one gets spotted.. KAPOOW. It's over . Voodoo ranger time.
