RE: !What kinda firearms do yall use?
 
My favorite gun to shoot is my .50 cal. T/C Hawken.

My favorite gun in the deer woods is my Marlin 30/30.

I use my Weatherby .270 when I get treated to hunt deer in the hill country of Texas.

Rem. 1100 12 gauge for doves.

Benjamin Sheridan .20 cal pellet gun for stray dogs.

This year was a tough year deer hunting for me. I was having trouble seeing deer the first three weeks of the season. I changed guns and used my T/C Hawken, and in an hour and a half, a young fat buck stepped out and I got my one and only deer for the season. My guess is that he didn't recognize me without the Marlin.

I can't hunt with one rifle.
This year, cartridge gun, a sportered Swedish Mauser in 6.5x55. Took a nice nine point management buck with that one.
Killed two does a bit later, with an Italian Replica M1803 Harper's Ferry flint rifle in .54 caliber.
Last year, the Swede again, and a '94 Winchester in .444 with cast bullets.
Year before that, a replica sniper version of a Mosin-Nagant M91/30 in 7.62x54R, and an 1892 Winchester in .38/40 with blackpowder/cast bullet handloads.
Hunting with one rifle is boring!
