Honestly, feel free to move this, mods. Not sure where it best fits.
I'm looking for a brush gun for deer and hogs. I have only hunted in Southern Idaho, so idk what to look for.
What I know:
1. I'll be in MO.
2. I don't have reloading stuff.
3. I prefer a rifle, but wouldn't be opposed to a revolver if that would be better. Lever action or pump is top, but even a double barrel would be cool (except for hogs, then I'd rather have a few more shots).
What I want to know:
1. What would be relatively easy to find in stores, but not too expensive to shoot?
2. Is getting a more uncommon round better, or does it get just that much more difficult to find ammo for when they slow down production?
3. Where to buy? I know Bass Pro owns Cabelas and Sportsman's now, are any of those worth going to, or should I just try local mom and pop places?
4. Are brush guns all $1000+, or is that just BP being expensive? .45-70 is the only one I really messed with, so that's probably a little high. Is there something a bit cheaper I could go with?
Thanks
