I believe you will be happy with the 308. Great round however I prefer the 30-06 and if you ever want to go smaller and faster consider the 25-06

I prefer 12 gauge 1 1/4 of 5 or 6 shot with the heaviest dram of powder. However I always like a fast load over a heavy load. If you will be doing lots of walking behind dogs nothing beats a 20 gauge with 3" inch loads of 1 1/8 oz of #6 shot. If you walking a lot I always say go with as light as gun as possible that way you will be quicker when the time comes to pull the trigger.

One of the best uses for cats is to tye a string around their leg and then stake them to the ground in an area that you believe that their might be any coyotes or foxes. When they start screaming and crying the predators start coming in for an easy meal. When I lived in Montana many cougar hunters would go down to the pound to get a cat to release out in a field for their dogs to chase to train their hounds on cougar hunting.

I have been been reading the forums off and on for just a short time and I have to say that i enjoy reading all of your posts. I am a wildland firefighter and fire season is quickly approachin here in California so I hope I will be able to keep in touch from time to time.
