What type of .30-06 ammunition to use for deer hunting?
10point replied to mossy725's topic in Rifle and Gun Hunting
Like i said that was a extreme example And when you shoot off hand and your excited from seening a deer your 4 inch group with iron sites can easily become 8" What you can hit shoot under stress and real world hunting conditions is difference then what you shoot at the bench . What your able to do when your under stress is more imported when your hunting . In my opinion especially if your stalking tracking deer . I know guys that are great at the bench have rifles that shoot 1 inch groups all day long but get buck fever in the field and cant hit the side of a barn . Then i know old timer guys that use your basic shot gun with iron sites or even beed and never miss a deer . The Shooter means as much or more then the weapon in the end . -

Well that was just a extreme example but people do hunt with smoothbore shotguns that probably alot only group 8 inches at 100 yards depending on the ammo you use. And alot of deer have gone down with them over the years . -

I like still hunting stalking tracking deer For the most part . Staying in one spot in a ground blind or tree stand more then 2 or 3 hours i just cant stand much of that . Moving around tracking stalking i can go all day long . Using the bullet that does the most tissue damage is more importent to me then groups . Because you may have to take shots at not the most ideal angle. But if i was hunting a corn field i sure would be using the gun with the best accuracy longest range . Everyone uses the tool they think is best for the job .but some just want the exstra challenge of using something less then Hi-Tech. Handgun shotgun muzzleloader bow recurve crossbow xct. For example Not everyone wants to use a 300 weatherby mag that shoot sub 1 inch groups at 100 yards with a Leupold MARK 8 3.5-25x56mm ER/T Illuminated Riflescope to hunt deer at 30 yards from a tree stand or box blind but some guys do . Its all about what your golds are . People use what ever the law says you can use . There is no right and wrong way to hunt as long as you do it with in the rules of the law . -

If your only going to hunt deer in places that you cant see past 75 yards . You dont need a gun designed to take 400 yard shots to hunt deer at 75 yards Is the point of my example . People hunt with handguns Do you think most or any handgun shooters are doing 2 inch groups at 100 yards no . The guy who is using a hand gun knows he is not going to take long shots . Same with a bow people know the limits of the weapon they choose to use. -
I have one from dicks only thing i dont like is during gun season if your hunting public land that has a lot of hunters on it you have to worry about them not seeing you in the thing and possibly taking a shot in your dirction . The animals don't seem to notice them .

Turkey i know dont notice at all i had turkey walk 5 feet from mine the very first time and hour i used mine

Have you ever hunted out of a popup blind the same day and seen deer ? Always wonderd if they notice them at first that they would not come near it unless its been there for a few days in the same spot .

Well its all relative for example Ak 47s are not know for accuracy and they probably have killed more humans and animals then any other weapon on earth anything that can hit a 8 inch plate at 100 yards with 1000 foot pounds of energy at that distance is good enough to hunt deer in most parts of New york state where most shots are taken under 75 yards . In my opinion -
Plenty of public land in the caskills and not that crowded like it was 10 20 30 years ago. Especially after opening day.

Obams and the clintons could give lessons to the mafia on how to run a orginzed crime group . They seem to have it down to a science . Pretty sad how crooked everything's become. -

in general always go for the heavier grain bullet . Unless you are going for really long shots and dont use a range finder to adjust for bullet drop . That being said with a 30-06 your going to kill deer with what ever bullet you use if you hit them right . If your going to be stalking deer tracking deer . Where your taking shots at not the most ideal angles . Definitely go for the heavier bullet. -
