What weapon should I buy...

[jpc01101]

Alright, figured I'd go to the group. I'll start by saying I don't really "need" any of these LOL. I hunt primarily with my wife and son, and spend more and more time getting them on animals than I do myself. I currently have a 6.5 PRC (Browning x-bolt), 300 PRC (Christensen Ridgeline FFT) and a 6mm Creed (Ruger). My son shoots the 6.5 just fine and has shot the 300 suppressed with no issues. We live in KY so mainly Turkey and Deer for us around here. Got a .410 Mossberg with a red dot last year for Turkey. I have a sandhill crane hunt coming up in Jan in TX and no gun for that but could likely borrow one as I don't really waterfowl hunt. We have gone to Africa the past two years and might go next year (won't be hunting buffalo though).

I voted Tikka but do you have a 10mm handgun?

I do have a Glock 10mm milled for a red dot

My gramps told me weapons are for killing folks/defending yourself. Guns/firearms are for hunting.

25 Creedmoor Tikka is answer.

All the above

I voted Tikka, but 6.5 Peak with a suppressed 16 or 18 inch tube.

But is a crossbow a firearm?

I'd say its more medieval cosplay.

For what purpose?

For what purpose?

Hunting as main purpose. From Whitetail in Ky, elk in the west, stag in NZ, Africa plains game.
