heck yeah.  in colorado you must use loose bp with only a conical non-sabot bullet or a round ball.  sights...no fiber optics.\n\nin other states it varies.  i think most of the restrictions are going to be on the type of sights.\n\n209's are ok, i think. \n\ndouble check with your states dnr to be sure.\n\ngood luck.

They're legal until you get caught by police.(Arkansas)

Yeah.\n\nWent out plinking with my .22, and when I came into small clearing up around the bend, I was face to face with a black bear and her cub. Range: 4 feet. I ran north. They, thankfully ran south. Happy ending.\nMoral of story: Carry a larger gun in the woods if you choose to wander into a tough neighborhood.

Not illegal at all - eBay just doesn't want that business. If you want to arrange a firearms purchase over the internet (you can't really BUY a gun online unless you're a licensed dealer) then head to one of the links below.

most of the answers you have been given are correct. i worked in a very high volume gun shop for years and have personally owned well over a hundred firearms. most of the rifles being in the 30 caliber class. you just said deer hunting, if that is the largest game you will be hunting a 308 is plenty. and as far as the people saying the 308 is flatter shooting. that is also very true. and commercially available loads are readily available for the 308 just for extreme accuracy. if you go with a 308 try factory remingtons loaded with a 168 grain hollow point boat tail. 168HPBT is how it will be described. if you load youre own you can get just as much accuracy from the 30-06. i shot many over the years and it also has advantages. the long range competions at military ranges have relied on experienced shooters able to handle the recoil of a 30-06. but if you are never shooting more than 150 yards and deer will be the largest game you intend to hunt a 308 is plenty. i got hooked on 30-06 from the older military guys. i have to admit that a garand is a very pleasant rifle to fire. both cartridges are great. when i shot 30-06 i always reloaded and there are so many options it is mind boggling. i loaded everything from 95 grain plinker loads using bullseye pistol powder to 230 grain full house loads that would just about dislodge my shoulder. to get back to youre question again, you mostly say target shooting and amature competition. then a heavy barrel is the best choice. and i dont know if you have youre mind set on remington for a certain reason but money wise there are better choices for accuracy versus money. and im not just blowing smoke out of my butt. i have owned well over a hundred firearms and have fired atleast a thousand different configurations. so i am slightly biased from my own experiences. remington manufactures great arms but for very accurate target shooting and competition you will notice that a bolt action rifle is usually used. and i have to say that savage arms is the best for the money. i have owned browning and ruger and remington bolt action heavy barrels. but the savage rifles have always been more accurate. i have a savage model 110 fp in 308 that i can pick off crows at 200 yards easy. i believe the new version is called a model 10, they shortened the action. and my savage 112 bvss in 30-06 is a rifle i could never part with. shooting hand loads with 168 grain sierra hpbt and pre fired remington brass. i have had many times groups well under .500. my most accurate load is pre fired remington brass neck sized with a cci # 200 primer and a charge of49.3 grains of IMR 4064 powder followed by a sierra 168 grain hpbt set at an oal of 3.292. but every rifle is different but that works perfect for me. if youre just going deer hunting get a basic plain jane rifle. even an inch of target isnt a big deal in that situation. but if you really want accuracy i have already gave you my opinion. i think the 308 or 30-06 are both great choices. and the ammo is readily available for both given they are military cartridges, surplus ammo just for plinking and having fun is available cheap. and on the fun side is really neat to buy surplus military ss-209 , 223 rounds and pull the bullets and load them in sabots which i believe are still available.if not i have gobs of them i bought years ago and would be willing to sell some.  a 223 with a steel penetrator in a sabot comes out of a 30 caliber about 3700 fps. it will go right through an inch of solid steel. i hope i was of some help.

Depends on the quality of the rifle. Best to take it to a PROFESSIONAL firearms dealer (not your buddy who read about it in G&A) and have it evaluated "for auction"

They make a pellet rifle that takes two of the small CO2 tanks that is very quite and has power of 22 cal rifle.  But if you are rich then a silenced rifle would be sure thing.   They are not illegal like un educated people think.   but they are expensive.  Must buy through a class 3 gun dealer and must wait for FBI background check plus pay $200 tax on the gun.   Best bet is the crossman rifle that takes the CO2 tanks but you must remember that they are power full and deadly. be sure there is nothing behind your target that you wouldn't want to hit with possible misses.

I hunt three different counties in north ark. , baxter, randolph, and craighead. Not married, no family, so I have alot of hunting time. I assure you the rut is not over. I saw a nice 8+ pt. chasing a doe Saturday, and a 5 or 6 pt. chasing Sunday. Just a little FYI, I have about 10 or so guys that hunt up here in different areas, we were all in agreeance that the rut came in just a little later than normal. Obviously the earliest does may be done but theres always the late ones that are just coming into estrus now, so it should continue for a while. With the massive acorn crop this year the best setup would be around good white oak trees, outside of thickets; where trails converge, or natural funnels. That being said we had two bucks killed on food plots last week mid morning, so if the bucks are running you never really know where they'll be. I'd do a little scouting and try to find where the deer are feeding during the day or traveling to and fro. If your looking for that Big Boy that hides out, dive off into the thickest stuff you can shoot in around where deer are traveling or hanging out. Best of luck to ya!

While a 22 is probably enough to discourage or kill a cougar remember they are ambush predators.  If one wants to eat you I doubt you'd have time to turn the rifle on him.  You'd better check your local laws on carrying fire arms.  Be safe.

If you are allowed to shoot varmints with a semi-auto the Ruger 10/22 magnum is a good choice. A box of 50 shells is $6-$8.\nThe magnum has more range than the .22lr and is a lot cheaper to shoot than center fire ammo.\nWith practice shots to 150 yards and farther are possible. On the 22lr shots to 100 yards are about it's limit.\n10/22's are easy to upgrade with heavy barrels, new trigger groups and fancy stocks.
