    I said no as my deer hunting is with a bolt action although I have a 10/22 that hasn’t seen sunlight for a long time
    My 1st deer was with a Mini 30 I borrowed.
    I have used/own a MSSA a-cat when shooting goats as a mob animal. Again hasn’t been for a long time now

    I used to use my bolt action 223 and 243 for hunting goats, but using my suppressed AR these days for larger mobs of goats is much more successful and the farmer is pleased. I do take the meat of young ones and nannies too.

    Not so much lately because I haven't got out but until lead was outlawed on ducks my favourite shotgun was a Browning A5. Used to shoot ok on the clays with it too.
    Favourite little 22 was a 10/22

    Had 1 .22 semi, shot plenty with it as I used it nearly everyday for a number of years and had a lot of fun with it but could have done it with a bolt if that was all that was available. All mine are bolt now.

    If you do then post a reply so we can guage numbers. Dont ignore this, i am not asking for my own personal interest.
    Remember, a semi could include a Browning BAR, Valmet Hunter, 10/22... anything semi, not just an AR...

    If you have replied to the same question on one of the FB pages, then you dont need to vote in this poll.
    can you delete my vote, i didnt factor in my .22 marlin?
