ill tell ya a perfect little gun for deer at 100-150 yards,,,its got to be the ruger 44 mag carbine...it hits like a frieght train and is smooth and fun to shoot..you can trian your kid to hunt also with it...or its a great womans gun because it wont tear her shoulder off...my little sister has one and you would have to break her arms to get it away from her...shes got quite a few deer too.
