What are you deer huntin' with?

H&R SB1 frame w/500 S&W barrel(5 harvested)

Did you shoot full house factory loads out of the 500? How was the recoil with the H&R?

Being new to the state of Indiana I have not been Deer hunting in a long time. My first deer rifle was a Remington 760 BDL deluxe bought for me by my wife in 1967. I still have it. With no where to hunt now I fear my Deer hunting days are gone. The deer camp days where some of the best of my life.

For serious hunting my Savage 20 guage. For fun, my Winchester 1892 in 44-40 built in the late 1890s.

Used the old smith&wesson 629 with burris 2x7 didnt get a shot on anything. I am only comfortable shooting out to 50/60 yards.

I used my Parker WildFire XP during archery season. I used my newly traded for Traditions Pursuit XLT with 240gr. Shok-Wave's. I look to build another 12ga slug gun for next year. Those wet rainy day's don't go well with the ole muzzy.

Past couple years I have used 44mag lever gun. Just got Mossey 500 for Christmas. Gonna give it a go next season

.35 rem TC super 14, no porting- has a good jolt to forearm, but with Pachmayr Grippers is comfy. It's different, the recoil, and kinda cool actually

I could see it as a problem for folks with a bad elbow or wrist, maybe the elbow moreso, due to the straight back kind of whack.

My dad and I both hunt with Contenders.
Mine's .357, pretty basic, but a shooter.
His is a 35 Rem similar to yours, his does have the muzzle break though. It's certainly a different recoil to it! Doesn't matter how his aim is though, the muzzle flash alone is enough to put down most deer...

Had a minty 14" with brake come through my local shop, passed on it due to brake.
I just want another 14" plain, easy open frame, set up with Pachmayrs, 2X EER Leupold.

Last couple of years, I've been using a CVA Scout rifle, 44 mag., with a Nikon 2x7 shotgun scope on board. Net result has been 3 shots, 3 deer in the freezer.
