What Yall Use For Deer
What cal./rifle do y'all use for deer. I use a Hawkens .50 cal muzzleloader with 100 grains of black powder. Ive always wanted to hunt deer with a 30-30 (one of my favorite rounds), but I do most of my hunting in RI and its illegal to hunt with center-fire rifles (go figure), but when I get my 7.7mm Jap up and shootin, I'll hopefully use it to hunt deer here in CT next year or somethin

30.06, .45/.50 ML, or H&R Heavy Barrel .20. Like an earlier post mentioned, usually bow is all that is needed.

RE: What Yall Use For Deer
I use everything except a rifle. I mainly bow hunt, but I use a slug gun quite a bit too. Looking at getting a TC Encore this year for the 12 ga, and .50 Cal capabilities.

RE: What Yall Use For Deer
2004 bowtech Mighty Might with 2213 easton arrows, H&R Ultra slug in 12 ga not sure about the ammo yet still haven't made up my mind, and a remington 700 ML inline with 90 grns of fffg 777 and a precision rifle bullet in 350 grns. I'm switching back to cleanshot/pioneer though.
If I could hunt with a centerfire I would probably have a H&R or savage in .243. Paul |

RE: What Yall Use For Deer
It all depends I use my Bear/Jennings Bow, My good ole trusty
12 guage Ithica M66 Supersingle, or a 30-30 Marlin |
RE: What Yall Use For Deer
I have to begin saying the only way for me to start my deer season right is to put a Gold Tip XT through the lungs ofa white tail with my beloved Mathews LX.
Then... We can't use rifles here but the first thing I grab during firearms season is my Encore ML with Hornady L-N-L sabot and 150 grains worth of Pyrodex pellets. The second thing I grab is my ole Model 1300 Winchester 12 Guage with Winchester Partition Gold slugs. I usually go to Eastern Kentucky hunting White tail every year and then I bring two rifles. Winchester Model 70 300 Win mag with some 150 grain ballistic silvertips that I load, and my 2nd rifle is a good old Winchester Model 94 30-30. And during all of these except Bow Season, I'll have my trusty Ruger Super Blackhawk 44 on my side ready to go to work! What a fun post! I enjoyed this! |

RE: What Yall Use For Deer
For gun season I use a Savage 110 (Left-hand) in 30-06. I'm not that happy with the quality of mySavage, but nobody else makes a reasonably priced left-hand bolt action. I'm definately upgrading after college when I have more money.

RE: What Yall Use For Deer
My youngest son and I have gotmy safe open as I write this. We have been trying to decide what we are going to hunt with this year. My son wants to hunt with my Marlin 336 30/30 on our place here and use his Encore 270 when he gets to hunt our place in Oklahoma for the first time this year. I will be taking my Knight Disc 50 cal. to Oklahoma this October, and IF I don't connect during ML season, I will be taking my Blaser300 WSM during rifle season. I am not an avid archery hunter, but I will be taking my Diamond bow out at least a couple of times to try for a doe or two on our place here in Texas. During rifle season, I am planning to get some blood on my Armalite AR-10, but my Marlin 336 is my primary truck/ATV gun and will more than likely see the most action. I usually hunt with my Knight ML at least a few times here even though there is no season to take advantage of in east Texas.
