Re: Hunting Legality With Combo Guns & Drillings
Sounds like great fun, what kind of speeds and weight of projectile are we talking about? I will have to have more than 910 joules at 100 meters! I think the local shooting range would cry a little if I came to shoot the yearly rifle shooting test with hunting broadheads on the electronic targets...

Wouldn't that be "arrow hunting" not bow hunting ???

At that range a 400gn arrow would be doing 250fps so it would come in under, still be fun though.
I'm soft and I don't care.

Re: Hunting Legality With Combo Guns & Drillings
Here in Texas they are good to go. If you are going to shoot ducks, you can not have lead fine shot on your person, but slugs or rifle rounds are OK. (Called the Feds in person and they had no issue with big game rounds being on your person, but no lead shot!) Public land does not allow buck shot so you have to keep that in mind as well. I use the kent matrix shells when I want to kill a couple of wood ducks and a squirrel or two. The 30-06 and the detachable scope allows for a deer or pig if they stumble by. My Kreighoff is wonderfully accurate and I often use it as a single shot rifle from the stand.
I have killed several deer with my 12/12/3006 drilling.
