[QUOTE="ProBusiness, post: 1169909, member: 6145"] this shotgun will work with limitations but: - with a smooth barrel shotgun shooting a slug you are probably limited to around 100 yards --- that is not good. - a slug truely kicks like a mule - you do not have open rifle sights or a scope on this gun. you need those for deer. I would hate to spend the money and time to get into good deer woods and see a great deer over 125 yards and know your chances are real low at hitting it. BUT with a rifle that distance would not be a problem. Your distance is handicapped with a shotgun. I would take the $180 and buy a rifle with a scope. Then you have just doubled your distance over a shotgun if not more. - I think guns are cheaper now in the off season than during hunting season. Except for sales and then it might not be the gun you want. Go to [url]www.gunbroker.com[/url] and get a good rifle for around $300. Then you are set up with no handicaps. - [/QUOTE]
