Will a pellet gun kill a crane?
it depends what kind of gun you have, the average air rifle will kill a raccoon at its biggest if you area a good shot. but if u want to kill a pig which are tough animals you may need a big bore air rifle quackenbush makes good ones they can even take down deer.
Extremely unlikely You will just anger the pig.
If you are talking about a hand "air gun" Then most likely "NO" because the pellets only come in .177 .22 and .25 cal. Now if you are talking about an air rifle, then it is possible but you are looking at a high end air rifles in the PCP class of air rifles. The PCP's (Precharged Pneumatic Guns/Rifles) use a scuba tank to charge them and can fire a pellet as large as 9mm, 45 and 50 Cal. These will bring down a boar, deer or moose. An example is the "Dragon Slayer" by Shin Sung. ( See: the link below.) There are quite a few makers of large bore air rifles on the market today. ( See link 2 Below.) and ( See link 3 Below) are but a few of the places that you can purchase them.
BTW Quackenbush made a 50CAL that is considered the rifle that all other PCP's are measured against. It was named the .457 Outlaw Long Action.
What is the best rifle scope for shooting at 500 yards with low light?
The best that you can afford! I would advise you to try different scopes for the clarity and workmanship and decide for yourself.I have always made a promise to myself that when you pay good money for a rifle capable of shooting that distance accurately why go cheap on a scope.Most of the european made scopes with a 30mm scope tube diameter will give excellent light gathering.Zeiss,schmidt & Bender,swarovski,Meopta,are some prime examples.American made scopes of quality are Leupold,Burris,etc.I would say that the power of your scope does not need to exceed 14x.So a nice 4x-14xpower scope should do you just fine.The bigger the object lenses the more visability at low light.I would suggest a 44mm,or at most a 50mm objective.The nice thing is a European scope with the tube diameter of 30mm will gather more light without having to exceed a 44mm objective lens,which puts the scope closer to the barrel of your rifle.Good luck!
How do you load buckshot only into a 69 cal smooth-bore musket?
The easiest way would be to load powder, cover with a patch or small card, load shot, and cover again. Or you could make a cartridge with buckshot in the end, and ram the whole lot down after pouring the powder down.
Can you shoot a slug through a Browning A 500?
Yes. Slugs can be fired in any modern shotgun. It is best to use an improved cylinder barrel. Modified and full chokes are usually not as accurate, and too many slugs can cause them to pattern poorly with shot loads, although it is perfectly safe to use them.
Can you shoot a slug with an 870 that has a modified choke on it?
Yes: A Remington 870 shotgun with a modified choke will shoot any commercial shotgun slug.

Why should people stop fox hunting?
The fox is at the top of the food chain, this means it has no predators and as a result, no natural way of keeping the fox population healthy and thriving. Foxhunting is a humane way of natural selection where weak and old foxes are humanely culled resulting in a strong and healthy fox population without disease. Without fox hunting the fox population would not be a healthy one prone to disease and the lack of management could lead to disastrous consequences.
How do you disassemble a Stevens model 620 shotgun?
I don't have one in front of me, but if it's like other Model 94s you should be able to just grip the forearm near it's muzzle end and pull it off. It's probably held on by a spring like other 94s.
How can hunting benefit people?
Hunting is not all about killing. It is about the entire experience. Being out in nature is relaxing and enjoyable. Trying to out smart an animal and be able to take the animal is very exciting. It is also rewarding when you get to enjoy your meal. It is nice to know you a feasting on an animal raised in the wild as opposed to one that has been raised in a confined feeding operation.

Not necessarily; it depends on the circumstances. In some states it is legal to shoot a dog if it is bothering your livestock. You could also shoot a dog to put it out of it's misery if it is wounded or dying.
Can you shoot a shotgun without choke tube in?
Yes. Rifled slugs are intended for smoothbore barrels (abot slugs aer for RIFLED barrels). Best accuracy with rifled slugs is USUALLY a modified choke, but can be safely fired thru any choke less than EXTRA full choke.
What safety percaution should you take when hunting from a boat?
Watch out for the camera and yourself.
They should take the same precautions any boater would. Have all the necessary safety gear, wear your lifejacket, avoid standing and rocking the boat. Many hunters do not consider themselves boaters, but if they are using a boat to hunt then they are a boater. They need to know the rules for boats in their state.
You could report any suspicious activity you see to Fish and Game. Other than that there's nothing else you can do.
Use cheap trail cam's in places that poachers are likely to shoot from if you are trying to protect a specific area.
If your trying to drive off road "hunters". Simply take a camera and follow them. They are allowed to drive on public roads but so are you as long as you follow traffic laws. After you prevent them from shooting a few times they generaly go find less protected areas.
Either way photos or video's of them tresspassing or shooting from the road need to include a timestamp and identifyable features.
