RE: !What kinda firearms do yall use?
For deer here in IL I use an H&R Ultra Slug Deluxe in 12 gauge. My oldest son uses H&R Ultra Slug in 20 gauge. If I'm in tighter woods or real brushy areas I will use my old JC Higgins 12 gauge pump.
For small game (like squirrel and rabbit) I use either an old New Haven .410 bolt, an old Stevens 94 single shot 12 gauge or one of my many Ruger 10/22's. My oldest boy uses an NEF .410 single shot or one of the Ruger 10/22's. Big birds-the old Stevens 94 or a Mossberg 500 12 gauge. Crows - sniping 'em?.......a sweet old Mossberg .22 Magnum....flyers?..........the old Stevens 94 or the Mossberg. 'Yotes? A Bushmaster AR or very occasionally my old German Mauser in .06. Bad guys? Kimber CDP .45 or Kel-Tec P11 9mm - everyday. Uncle Matt (in IL) |

Remington 870 Express. 20" smoothbore barrel for slugs, 28" VR barrel for turkey.
T/C Black Diamond XR .50 Cal muzzleloader .35 Cal Rem Marlin 336CS, but hardly get to use it anymore. Marlin model 60 .22 for plinking Ruger .357 GP100 for making loud noises at the range BowTech Extreme VFT for making hardly any noise at the range (haven't had the pleasure of taking a deer with it yet) |
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. C. Davis |

RE: !What kinda firearms do yall use?
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! |
