Hi everyone. I am thinking of getting a new rifle for this next deer season coming up. I will be hunting very thick brush (farthest shot would be no more than 50 yards) and am considering a CZ 527 in 7.62x39 and a marlin 1894 in 44 mag. I already have a 30-30 but ammo is expensive (a little over a dollar a round for winchester soft points in my area), so i cant practice as much as i would like to. My main goal is to find a caliber that is relatively inexpensive to shoot and can effectively kill deer at close range. I think the 7.62x39 and 44 mag would be good choices. How do you think these two calibers compare and do you have something else in mind?
