My foavourite rabbbit gun is a little L.C. Smith, 20 ga. double barrel. It comes up fast, points right on anda is a joy to shoot. I have never hunted over beagles, but if I did I'd still use that little gun. BTW it was my grandfather's.

I hunt rabbits over Bassets, not Beagles. But I just love my Stoeger .410 SxS. It's light. Easy to carry. Comes up to the shoulder great, and I can't seem to miss with it.

I too like the stoger SxS 410, fast, lite and fun. Also run a stoger o/u 20.

20g Remington 870 shooting 7 1/2s. Doesn't take much to kill a rabbit.

if i got serious about huntin rabbits with dogs,id get a remington 870 youth model 20 gauge.reason:light,compact(er),fairly fast handleing.i walk around the edges of green fields right at dusk,with my 17 HMR.

genesis27:3 03-21-2010 02:45 PM

I either use my survival .22 or my 20 gauge.

barnold1 03-24-2010 04:18 PM

I shoot a Franchi 620; semi-auto with 24" barrel weighs in at 6 lbs or so. IC choke with 5 shot works very well on them.

OhioBowhunter 03-24-2010 05:56 PM

no matter if im hunting over dogs or by my self i use an old mossberg 500 20ga. its light and very smooth and i just cant miss:fighting0007::barmy:

LifexIsxHunting 03-24-2010 07:58 PM

Everyone can hit a rabbit with a scattergun so i usually use a 22 or 17 hmr.

Duramax05 03-25-2010 08:36 AM

T/C Contender 14" barrel 3" .410 with a load of #6's. Works great and carries even better.

DKA 03-25-2010 08:57 AM

Remington 870 20 Ga.
