Crash, I don't much care if it sounds preachy, I have hunted for my food more than once in life, and your thoughts are right.

some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"
It's legal in Wisconsin. I don't know of anybody who has ever used that small of a gun for deer but if you want you can.Originally Posted by trax
you can get them in different calibrations, corey. 7.62x39mm (.308 ish) are very common.
.22 magnum should drop a deer, illegal as **** any place I've ever hunted, but in a true "I've gotta kill that thing to eat situation"....I don't discourage it.
Survival rifle.. no question about it, a .22LR of just about any sort, as long as it's a weapon you're familiar with it's a good all around gun. Larger game, self defense call for different things but if I could only ever own one gun that would probably be it.
Well see, I've never hunted in Wisconsin, but if you're inviting me down....

The hunting here used to be MUCH better but since they (the DNR) have re introduced wolves and been trying to thin down the heard as fast as possible (to prevent the spread of CWD) by issuing virtually unlimited tags for $2.00 each over the past few years there are very few deer left. Musky fishing on the other hand is alive and well!
Yes It Was!
Are you serious? What about snaring the deer, then clubbing it to death? That ok too?Originally Posted by JRJ View Post
Whats wrong with shooting your dinner multiple times in the neck? Dead is dead

I do believe it was in reference to the "multiple neck shots" comment.
1. If it's in your kit and you don't know how to use it....It's useless.
2. If you can't reach your kit when you need it....Its useless.

FOR WILDERNESS SURVIVAL THE RUGER 10/22 IS MY FAVORITE BUT LATELY i BEEN CAYYING THE Patriot Ordnance P-416 Offensive Compact Carbine in 5.56mm NATO since I'ma be in the middle east in about a month. My sidearm will be either a Sig. or H&K .40
There is no greater solitude than that of the Tracker in the forest, unless perhaps it's that of the wolf in the wilderness.
the key part "LESS" than .22 caliber.
I like the Sig, a very reliable sidearm IMHO. And as far as your deployment in the mid-east, be safe, Via Con Dios my brother.
"A person is not finished when they are defeated.

Are you going to the sand pit?
NO the KEY part is "RIM" Not less
What part of "RIM" Fire do you not understand.......? Do you know the difference between CENTERFIRE and RIMFIRE....??????

Seriously? Read it one more time, it doesn't say you can't use a rim fire, it says you can't use one less than .22 calibur.
As many of you know, sometimes I catch on slow.......but I read it the same way that Cannonman reads it.
It does say RIMFIRE RIFLE.
YOU guys are NOT reading it correctly......reread. Carefully
"• It is illegal to hunt deer with any air rifle, rimfire rifle, or any center-fire rifle less than .22 caliber."
It's illegal to hunt with any of these *points up* less than 22 caliber. You guys are getting stuck on the rimfire part... notice it also mentions cneter fire right after that... what type of projectiles do you suppose we use here if centerfire and rimfire are both illegal?
I ain't going hunting there unless I bring a lawyer. Ken!
- It is illegal to hunt deer with any air rifle.
- It is illegal to hunt deer with a rim fire rifle.
- It is illegal to hunt deer with any center-fire rifle less than .22 caliber.
If you don't believe it. Then you go kill yourself a deer and take it to your local check station and let them know you killed it with a .22 magnum rim fire. When they start writing you a ticket you argue with them and cause as much fuss as you can. When law enforcement shows up, you argue with them too.
P.S. Make sure you have someone there taking pictures or videotaping it.
Crash, get out your copy of "Tongue and quill". (every good NCO had one) Read what those cama's mean as well as the use of the word "or"
