pitweiler Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 In addition to a long gun, who carries a handgun? I used to carry a handgun, then stopped doing it last year. I think I’m going to carry one again this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Seasons Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 I carry my kimber 1911 .45 while bear hunting, otherwise I do not carry one in the deer woods. Never saw the point. Be advised that it's also illegal during archery season, your constitutional rights be dammed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airedale Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 When hunting with a shotgun for small game I will have a lighter weight compact handgun on me many times. Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pitweiler Posted September 26, 2018 Author Share Posted September 26, 2018 I haven't decided which one I'm going to take with me. I'm leaning towards my M&P45. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pitweiler Posted September 26, 2018 Author Share Posted September 26, 2018 I really think the .40 S&W loaded properly would be a decent pistol for close range. There are so many deep penetrating expanding bullets available for the .400 caliber. I’m also throwing around the idea of just using my Glock 23 with my normal carry load- 165 HST.

Larry Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 When I carry it's to hunt with a handgun. My go to handgun right now is my S&W 629 DX loaded with ether a 225gr FTX or a 240gr XTP my go to powder is H-110 with 296 as my backup. I have found I don't have to trim the cases back to use the FTX bullets they fit in the cyinder on both my 629 and my DW HV8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Four Season Whitetail's Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Always something there in case it's needed regardless of the season. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosquibs Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I carry all the time, when hunting I usually carry a Super Black Hawk in .44 mag or one of my .357 Dan Wesson's. I think I've taken more deer with a hand gun than long guns, closest was 12feet straight down and the longest was 275 yards with a TC Contender in .35 Rem and my own home loads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
