Ruger 77/17 and a 14 power VX III scope is pretty lethal in the head at up to 150 yds.  Also, it's great practice for the upcoming hunting seasons.   870 12 guage with 7 1/2 shot is also fun in the right applications.

Savage Model 24 with 22 Mag on top and 20 gauge on the bottom.  Also have one in a 22 LR on top and 410 on bottom but have some issues hitting them with the 410 at longer ranges..  Probably not the gun though!

As much as I love to hunt grouse with a shotgun, for me it just doesn't get more fun than hunting them with a bow.

I've killed grouse with rifle, bow and shotgun but if I had to choose just 1 weapon it would probably be my Marlin .22 rifle. First gun and alot of great memories following my dad around the woods with it. Grouse, coyotes and squirrels didn't stand much of a chance with that gun.
