RE: !What kinda firearms do yall use?
For deer here in IL I use an H&R Ultra Slug Deluxe in 12 gauge. My oldest son uses H&R Ultra Slug in 20 gauge. If I'm in tighter woods or real brushy areas I will use my old JC Higgins 12 gauge pump.
For small game (like squirrel and rabbit) I use either an old New Haven .410 bolt, an old Stevens 94 single shot 12 gauge or one of my many Ruger 10/22's. My oldest boy uses an NEF .410 single shot or one of the Ruger 10/22's.
Big birds-the old Stevens 94 or a Mossberg 500 12 gauge.
Crows - sniping 'em?.......a sweet old Mossberg .22 Magnum....flyers?..........the old Stevens 94 or the Mossberg.
'Yotes? A Bushmaster AR or very occasionally my old German Mauser in .06.
Bad guys? Kimber CDP .45 or Kel-Tec P11 9mm - everyday.

For deer in MD: 12 ga. 870 Wingmaster (rifled slugs)
For deer in VA: 870 or .30-06 700 ADL
For turkey in VA: 870 w/ replacement barrel, full choke
For small game in MD & VA: .22LR 514
I guess you can tell I'm a Remington guy. So far, no deer. [:'(] I just started hunting last year, so I haven't had much time in the field yet. Just counting down the days until spring gobbler season starts...I'm ready!

Marlin model 60 .22 for plinking
Ruger .357 GP100 for making loud noises at the range
