I believe that a .270 caliber, .308, .30-30, and .243 caliber rifles are great calibers to hunt deer with. I think that a .30-06 is just a bit overkill, but sometimes i will use that. i use eather a .270 or a .308 most of the time when i hunt white tail deer
Yes, there are several pre-charged, and break action pellet rifles that can more then kill a deer. They even use them to kill Wolf and Coyotes. However, you'd need a rifle with 16+ foot pounds to reliably kill large animals.
DONT DO IT!!! you will only hurt it. Only shoot it with a rifle. What if you live in Ohio and can't use a rifle Jack Wagon? If the right ammo is used and the right placement is done it will kill a deer Are you crazy? You would have to be extremely close to the dear to kill it with a 410 (10 meters at most) and a deer would hear you if you got close enough to kill it so its unethical. either shoot it with a rifle or in certain circumstances you could possibly kill it with a 12 or 20 gauge.
Yes, it is legal. Texas does not permit the use of RIMFIRE guns for deer hunting, but any centerfire is legal. Wh ile it is legal, I personally do not recommend it. Yes, the .223 can kill a deer. It will also wound a lot of deer. It is simply too small to insure a clean kill.
This question depends on the bullet, trajectory, and placement. Personally, I would never take a .223 caliber rifle against a deer. It does not have the penetration or mass of the bullet to make a good shot. Now back to the question, yes it could but it is highly unrecommended. Technically, a 22lr could kill a deer, but that is a less that 0.05% chance! Use a .308 or 30-06 caliber rifle!
It depends on what you mean. If you mean legally, many U.S. states require a caliber larger than .22 or 223, however, that IS legal in some states. If you mean what caliber will kill a deer, almost any rifle caliber will, but .22 or .223 is questionable, which is why many states prohibit that for deer hunting.
Only if your rifle is firing handgun rounds.
Use a .22 magnum. It will kill a deer.
You use a 22. rifle
No. In today's world, a good hunting rifle like a .30-30 is the best tool to use to kill a polar bear.
In this order; centerfire rifle, shotgun, handguns.
Yes, if you have a semi auto and are in a rifle county. It has about the same power as a 30-30 deer rifle. Nothing great.
The problem there is, you end up wounding the deer, and have to chase it all over creation; but in theory, yes.
