Pistols are fine as long as they're not bolt action! Or AR based

If you can't hunt deer with it then why own it. Think a little farther out of the box, some are trying to find ways to keep you from even owning a gun. Don't throw fuel on their fire! :bdid:

maybe for elk but any 22 centerfire is fine for deer, most other states allow any 22 centerfire and my 22-250 destroys deer in georgia.

243 is one fine caliber and is used by alot of elk hunters I know. As everyone has said in previous threads it's all about shot placement. My go to deer cartridge is a .240 Weatherby.

Like grouse tracker said 22-250 is a deer killer in Midwest states. With a good bullet and placement it makes a good deer caliber. But there are plenty of people who can't shot a barn door and 10 paces hahaha  :chuckle:

I think a lot of people think this is a serious thread. This is far less serious than the Bigfoot thread.  >:( >:( >:(
