Default does it matter to deer

does the gun being blue instead of camo effect deer seeing you or your gun.
I was planning on going camo but with a 150 dollar differnt not sure it is worth it

will the deer see the blue more then camo

Many a Animal have fallen to Blued Barrle guns also SS Barrled guns They will catch your smell of see you moveing befor they can tell it your gun is SS - Blued or camoed Go with the Blues or Wheather sheild because if you go with the camo then for it to all match you will have to get camo bases& rings & scope . JUST NOT WORTH IT ( You are not Turkey hunting ) But that is JMO

I have used all styles of rifles, wood, camo, synthetic, you name it. I never had a deer bust me yet because of the color of the stock or the barrel. I think sudden movement is your worst enemy whether it is the rifle or you.

movement, scent and deer see black and white. That is why I went stainlees and black on my Pro. I liked the look, a lot of people pay the xtra bucks to shoot what makes them feel good. That is okay, any confidence builder when shooting ois helpful.

The deer here hate when I shoot them with a plain blued gun.
But not any worse then they hate being shot with my camoed one's.

You don't need a camo gun, only buy it that is what you want.
