Primitive Firearm for Deer Hunting

360 Buckhammer.

CVA scout in 35 Whelen.

I bought the H&R Handi rifle in 35 Whelen when it became legal in Louisiana. Money was tight and it was the cheapest option. I've killed a bunch deer with it. But I will say the trigger is pretty crappy on it. I don't know if the more expensive single shots have better triggers or not.

Whatever you go with, IMO the 35 Whelen is the best caliber option.

.44 magnum

I have two. 35 Whelen - CVA scout. Henry single shot 350 legend. Henry has nice looking guns if you are into that and it comes in many calibers.

I'd go with .350 Legend if I were buying now. I have a .444 and am paying around $50 a box for ammo. I see the legend for sub $30 all the time.

I don't think that firearm is two words. I don't even know what youre trying to ask.

CVA Scout .35 Whelen has been a stud for me…. 225 grain accubonds are thors hammer

CVA Scout in 350 Legend or 35 Whelen. My favorite ammo is anything loaded with Barnes.

I have a CVA Apex in 35 whelen. My father has the Scout II in 35 Whelen. Both shoot touching bullet holes at 100. His is heavier and kicks less than mine.

Your max range with a 350 Legend will be 150-160ish just like with a 30-30. Recoil is minimal.

Max with the Whelen just depends on the wind and how good you are. I use Barnes 180gr. I am right at 8" low at 300 yds with my rifle sighted in 2" high at 100yds.

I would go with the cab 35 Whalen, and put a lazer range finding scope on it to really expand your season and range.
Jk but you could legit shoot 500yd with that set up and be legal primitive in La but my 30-30 with a 2-7 power scope is not.
