RE: what kind of gun do u deer hunt with and why?
i use a sprngfld 30-06. because they are a common gun. plus if i want to use them for other stuff i can. like put in small loads for varmet, or put in heavier for bigger game such as moose, elk, ect... if i need too. but most of all when i hit the deer in the right spot they drop dead. i have used smaller gun such as a 243 and no offence aginst them prob buy one cuz they are fun to shoot, but i shot 2 deer with one and both of em ran and layed down and died. both chest shots. but my deer this year at 250 yrds shot one time was dead as soon as i pulled the trigger. but i like 243's too so dont get me wrong bout that. but thats y i like my 30-06
