For deer and elk, 125-grain broadhead
For varmints, my super-accurate Ruger 10-22
For birds and bunnies, a break-action 12-gauge, although I am thinking about getting a 20-gauge for quail/doves
For burglars...let's just say I have a handgun. :)

"I am not against golf, since I cannot but suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering trout..." Paul O'Neil

"There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home." Roderick Haig-Brown, Fisherman's Spring, 1951

The only animals I have ever hunted and killed I stalked with a sharpend stick and a big buck knife. I got rattle snakes, BIG bunnies and lizards and a deer. This was when I lived in the wilderness of Utah at survival camp. No matches, no tent, no backpack, just a knife and the clothes on your back for three and a half months. I haven't been hunting since, so no guns.

Ducks: Beretta 390[thumbsup]

Grouse: Rock, stick, boot, hands, whatever is convenient. Man they're dumb![confused]

Deer: Knees are shot so pretty much just sit at camp and kill beers. The rifle I have though is a Rem. 710 30-06.8-[

Other living things: Chuck Norris takes care of the rest.](*,) :rambo:

Ive done the same for rattlesnakes, bunnies, and lizards... but how the heck did you get a deer? Lol

As for me...
Deer-.30-06 (looking to invest in a .243 or a 30/30)
Elk- .30/06

Not this season but the next, im going to be going bear hunting... Ill probably use my .30/06 for it as well, 185 grain. [thumbup]
