1938 Mauser. My son shot his first deer, a doe for camp meat, with this rifle. When my buddy flipped the deer over and saw the softball sized exit wound, his only words were, "f*#%in' Germans". I still think that if my son had missed, the little deer would have still died from the noise and muzzle blast.

22-250 200 yard shot walking away from me turned it's head to the side then I pulled the trigger. Bullet dropped over the distance went exactly up it's rear hole and broke it's back. No entry hole found at all (even when skinned). I was 12 and it was my first buck.

When I was a kid (back in the 60's) my dad's deer gun was a German Mauser that he brought back from WWII in Germany. He killed deer all over Texas and Colorado with it. A few years ago, I decided I wanted one for myself, so I bought one at a gun show. I've taken it out a few times, but never shot a deer with it. I took my son out last year for his first deer hunt, and he dropped a nice doe from about 125 yards with one clean heart shot. Not bad for a gun that was made almost 100 years ago.

24inch pipe wrench

not really a wierd rifle but I haven't seen very many. It was a Remington(I believe) lever action 243 that my cousin owned and took my first deer with it when I was 12.

Don't understand at all the comments about a 22-250 being a weird firearm. Texas classic right there, great deer rifle with a Sierra 63g soft tip.

Weirdest firearm for me was a Remington XP-100 .221 Fireball handgun.

I use it with 55gr....works fine for recoil sensitive person like me. :peep

I have one in 7.7 Jap...I'd love to shoot a hog or deer with it. Ammo is expensive and hard to come by.

My buddy says he can only put the Norma brand through this rifle. Something about the thickness of the brass.

Rolled up newspaper..

30-378

killing a deer with anything other than a 300wm seems weird to me....

Doesn't the wife hunt with a 7mm-08?

I'm crying at this!!!!! WIN!

Pre-rifleman she did, got it for her A&M graduation present in 02/03, killed a few deer with it; 1 is all I've seen... She stole my first 270wsm and has been using it ever since.

Oh also remembered that one year my scope got bumped before a hunt and I shot the knee caps off a doe. She pushed her way under the neighbors fence and had to hope the fence when I found her my gun jammed and I had to slit her throat with a buck knife.

Quite the rush as I had to jump on a bucking doe and pin her down to get the cut. Granted she had no front legs as the bullet took out both her kneecaps but she was still strong.

stab to the lungs is easier than trying to slit the throat and is effective. Don't ask me how I know

I've went all OJ on one that was dragging my bro around like a rag doll.

.41 Magnum Ruger Blackhawk, that was back in my competition pistol days and that was a loooong time ago.

I crippled one once. The grove manager drove over and I asked if he had a hand gun. He said "no, but I have a hammer" I elected to use my rifle...

300 Whisper in a Contender handgun.

Killed a buck at 60yds with S&W 357 4in barrel. Rifle seemed to easy. Loud inside that box though.

458 WinMag

the buddy with the .40 was me and it was more like 50 yards. All luck never thought I would hit it. Aimed what seemed to be a small building over her back and sqeezed off.....two minutes later you could hear the pop. Right in the shoulder.

defiantly stabbing a pig with massive knife/sword from Walmart while 4 Pit Bulls wearing Kevlar were holding it down. That will change your life.....

Check out GuidedHunter link below and look for the North Texas Hog Hunters. Monty who runs that hunt is F'ing nuts.
