>>1894620Take it from someone who is equally a /k/ommando and /out/ist, been hunting all my life,, shot competition (10m airgun and field archery) grew up innawoods and came from a very /out/ and /k/ family...
Got bears?
>.357 or .44No bears?
>9mm if you want a semi>.357 if you want a revolver (practice with .38s)>Either way, the gun that is cheap and easy to shoot will be the better gun for you, within reason of courseShotgun?
>12 is most common and versatile>20 is nice to shoot but doesn't have the reach or punch of a 12, and you can get lighter 12 loads if you are recoil sensitive, but you can't get bigger 20sRifle?
>.270 or 7mm mag is a good all-purpose>.308, 30-06, 300, etc if you are mostly hunting bigger big game. Elk, moose, bears, even bigger hogs>.338 If you are sniping moose from a mile across the tundra>45-70 or shotgun slugs if you are in dense brush and might be getting CLOSE to dangerous animals like bear, moose or pigsGet a .22. They are the most utilitarian, all around small animal shooter and allow you to practice shooting without burning through money just shooting your big guns.
