Buy a used NEF handi rifle in .243win with a cheap scope on it. Then go to ebay and buy the other stuff. The hunting license and deer tags alone are probably gonna cost you around or over 50 dollars depending on where you are from. Good luck. You cant get all of this for under 175, but keep saving.

you are crazy you can't even buy a good deer rifle for a 175.00 unless you go to a pawn shop and even then the gun is probably stolen.

you could get a NEF 12ga. for $98 at my local walmart and grab a box of 00 buck or rifled slugs for another $3-5 and your at about $100(not counting taxes) that leaves $75 for gear and at walmart they usually have some cheap hunting boots for about $20 and you could get some cheap camo sweats and you would make budget and maby have some money left for lunch. Sure you wont be the most hightech hunter out there and you wont be picking off deer at 300yds. but it`ll do the job.

Too bad you didn't bet him about hunting dove, or even squirrels.
