Its now legal here in NC so I use my shotgun or one of my bows, but I hunt in Texas each year also, and I've gotten them with shotgun,,and also a few with my 280 (one running at 125 yards) and another with 17HMR for all these were shot where the neck meets the body,not messing up the breast. The 17 was about 150 yards. Main thing is to practice shooting whatever you'll use and know your gun or bow.


Good luck hunting this year everyone and be safe
