Less than two weeks till gun season.............

[DEER 24/7]

xbow, cap & ball revolver

 

[magna19]

Will be using a scoped Ruger Super Blackhawk Hunter in 41 mag.

 

[Oklahomabassin]

I doubt I'll use a gun this year. Archery is where it's at. I'll use a gun for yotes and hogs out at a distance

I have the same thoughts as you, but it makes a bigger impression on trespassers, when you are equally or armed more heavily.

 

[TedKennedy]

Mini-14 with Leupold 4x, Finnish M-39 - and as always, my 7X57 Mauser. (the other two are for fun, after the freezer's about full)

 

[Sticky Stokes]

Bow, or the old Rem 788 in .308 or most likely the Rem 700 30:06 Huckleberry built for me, going to shoot it this afternoon, it's a sweet rifle

 

[DRC458]

My primary will be my old faithful .243, but this time loaded with a Speer 85 grain BTSP. I've shot truck loads of deer with that rifle, but none with that bullet. Then, my 'new' 7x57 in a Ruger M77. I killed my first deer with an old Spanish '93 Mauser in 7x57, which I've still got and which will only shoot 175 grainers worth a darn, and which I keep loaded WAY light. I wanted to play with a 7x57 that I could load up to modern standards.

 

[Swine]

Either my 1886 african spear or the .780 caliber slingshot from the civil war... just not sure yet.

I do have a new glossy Browning BLR in 7mm-08 I need to take out of the box.... Oh the choices.

 

[Okie4570]

The GW will frown that spear....... although the coolness factor is high in my book

Since I may be stretching my shots out to 150 yds, I'm going with the 338 Lapua. I should be good because I had the guy at Walmart bore sight my new 3x9 Tasco, so I know it will be good to go. No need to go to the range ahead of time.

Or...
I will be hunting with my daughters, 9 & 12, and will be carrying either my Rem 700 16" 308 tactical rifle, or my Rem R-25 308.
12 year old will be using her 300 Blackout topped with a Nikon P-300.
9 year old will likely be using her Rem Model 7 youth in 243, topped with a compact Leupold 3X9.
