for upland and turkey 12 gage 1400 win
for waterfoll 12 gage 1100 rem
30.06 win for deer
6mm for coyote
22 ruger 30 clip

those are my favorite guns

 

Deer;my M1 Garand for the close swamp hunts,.243 for the beanfields
Eveything else I use my trust winchester 12ga.


If you could have one fire arm what would it be?I choose a my 12 ga because I can use it for anything from bear(3.5 in slug) to dove and everything in between.

 

7mm Rem Mag for the beanfields, handloads 140 grain at about 3100 ft per sec. aroud here and 12 Ga shotgun for the close swamp shot. This year will try to use a Ruger Redhawk .44 Mag in the swamp

 

For Semi Rifles....BROWNING'S RULE

For Singleshots...I love the feel of the Thompson Center Encores....try holding one and you'll see what I mean. The Rugar Number 1 is sweet too.

Shotguns...most are fine...I don't like heavy ones like the Mossburg 835's. Ithaca is my favorite I guess.

Lever Actions....Browning all the way.

Bolt Action Rifles...I love the mouser actions...but Browning and Weatherby are my favorites.

Another nice gun for the money worth mentioning is the Rugar M77 Stainless.


My favorite gun over any other is Betty Lou. Yeah...she is the one...she is a Combination AK57 Uzi Radar Laser Triple Barrel Double Scoped Heat-Seeking Shotgun!

And that's the Bottomline®

 

For dove, quail Beretta 391 Sporting Gold 12 ga.
For duck and geese, Benelli Nova (saiving up for a SBE and hoping they make a 10 ga.)
