Kinda new to the firearms forum (didn't know it existed lol) so i don't know how u guys operate, but ive been on the B5 forum for over a year now. Im just curious what all everyone uses for deer season, assuming u even hunt lol. If u prefer groundhog, bear, or even Elephant that's cool too.

I use my Remington 700 SPS DM Chambered in .30-06 mated with a Leupold VXII 3-9x40 and this year ill prolly carry my HK45 along with me just for the hell of it (only had her a cople months, and shes my first...lol).

or is that a p-chop?

I still have one of the hats from 8-9 years ago, from when someone at The Firing Line first did up some hats and shirts.

<b>Anschutz Model 64P</b>, 22LR with 10" barrel
<img src="http://www.championshooters.com/images/ansguns/64pbig.jpg">

It's based on the Anschutz Model 64 match rifle action. I originally bought this handgun for squirrel hunting, and mine has a 4X Nikon scope in lieu of the iron sights. With Eley Tenex, 10-shot groups at 50 yds are one ragged 1/2" hole on paper, or a single shot makes a 1/4" hole in the head of a groundhog.

Deer and Birds

Mossberg 550 - 12 guage.

Montgomery Count, MD + deer hunting = deer barrel.

Bird hunting is self explanatory.

I hate when people use a 300 win mag or a 7mm mag for whitetail deer. it is overkill anything over a 30-06, and plus the 30-06 (and .308 win) are excellent rifles for a diverse range of game.

also carrying a .45 is a good idea for if you wound an animal. using a scoped rifle for finishing off an animal is useless since the change hitting it are slim.

if I was able to hunt in an area where I was taking &lt;100 yards shots again then I would definitely hunt with the shotgun again. I also have a .44 mag rifle (Ruger 96/44 level action rifle) that I used as a saddle gun in the past, and I'd like the chance to drop a deer with it.

now it's not going anywhere. Rear shaft is still connected to the case, but that entire rear section of the tcase broke and pulled out. It's a huge mess, I needz a job and some loot to get her running again.

I keep telling him he needs to go to the shooting range to practice with me.

Yours sounds like a very nice gun for rodent control.

It's helps a bunch to be able to steady the handgun on a post or against a tree. I couldn't even begin to make a reliable 50 yd head shot on a groundhog without a good rest.
