Hunter007 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) I like slugs for brush hunting Edited January 9, 2018 by Storm914 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomad Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I stopped hunting brush, sure it’s plentiful and easy to sneak up on ( if you watch the wind ) but I’ve found it to stringy and hard to chew, if I want that I’ll just eat Mrs Nomads cooking . 7 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grampy Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Right now it's my 12g. Ithaca Deerslayer 2. But I'm currently keeping my eyes open for a short carbine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 No brush gun for me. I hunt with a .270 which likely won't hold together through any brush ....right? But that's ok. Most of my shots are fairly clear shooting lanes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moog5050 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 What makes a gun a "brush" gun? Small and easily maneuverable? I know deflection is deflection whether its a 12g or 30-30. I guess I would say my 30-30 because it is so easy to carry and shoulder being small. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPHunter Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I don't shoot through brush. It's a clear shot or a pass for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbHunterNY Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 i don't have a "brush gun". my thoughts are nothing is really going to save you. heavy flat nosed bullet with some HP behind it would help if even if negligible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
