What's your rabbit gun?

Post by tnbeagler21 »

What rabbit gun(s) do you hunt with? I use either my 20 ga. double barrel or my 22 semi auto. Sometimes I will pull out a 410 single shot. What ya'll use?

Thompson Center Contender -410 with 14" barrel. 3"- Federal #5's shoot the best but are hard to find, next choice is 3"Remington #6's mainly cause they are very easy to find and shoot decent.Truthfully though I shoot very little, maybe one or two rabbits a year. Game is scarce through the winter months around me, and I would rather just run the dogs.

Gun of choice this season was Canon Power Sot SX120, and I only killed (wounded) one hare this season, dogs had to finish it :D. I would like to try a Comanche 410 next season and try to kill a few for some young dogs, I carry enough crap the way it is and figure the pistol would be lighter than a long gun.

ruger 10/22, remington 870 20 ga. , franchi 12 ga. i like the 20 for the weight but same loads as 12 ga is $4 more a box. so i usually man up and carry the extra weight.

BigStrutter, I am like you, I will take a diff. one on diff. days. Just depends on what I feel like. I might take a 16 ga. single shot, 12 ga. pump or single shot, 410 single shot, my 22 semi auto, or a 20 ga. pump or 20 ga. double barrel or 20 ga. single shot. lol....I feel like a lot of different things. Just depends where I am hunting. I really like my 20 ga. double barrel and my 22 semi auto.
