yeah, i saw 35 or so hogs, and all i got was 1 shot with my LA 308, had i brought the AR i would have been able to fire off 10-20 rounds imo.
but, as it is i had way too much gear to haul 1.5 miles to the blind and i am very glad i didn't have one more item to shoulder with me.

I've shot 3 hogs from the same sounder with a bolt rifle. Quality shots are better than quantity. If you can get 20 rounds off at the same herd, you aren't aiming. To each his own though, the more dead hogs the better.

I normally have two rifles and a pistol. .243 for hogs (or if sissy is hunting) and my BP for deer. .40 just in case I get chased by the boogieman

I have trouble deciding and often bring two rifles to the blind. I brought a rifle , a scoped pistol and a crossbow on a hog/archery deer hunt 3 weeks ago. You broke the law unless y'all are MLD. You want to clarify that? Sounds legal to me.  You cannot have a gun with you if you have a bow and broadhead points during archery deer season. The only exceptions are if you have a CHL and have a concealed pistol, or if you are MLD in which case archery season doesn't apply to you. In other words you can't deer hunt with a bow, and hog hunt with a rifle at the same time if it is archery only deer season. That makes perfect sense, and I had heard that before. However, here is a bit of a puzzler along the same lines that I am NOT at all sure on. Would it be legal for me to be out during archery season archery deer hunting with my bow, sitting in the same blind with my girlfriend, who has her rifle along and is rifle hunting hogs?? It seems like it should be fine. She is hunting hogs with a rifle, which she can do at any time, and I am hunting deer with a bow, which is fine since it is archery season. But at the same time, it just seems like it sure might look suspicious to a warden! Do any of you all know the answer for sure?

I have carried a rifle for deer (.243) and a .17HMR for Turkeys at the same time. Since the .17HMR is NOT legal for deer, is it illegal to have it? the way it is written it says hunting with a rimfire for deer is illegal, it doesn't say possessing it while you have a legal centerfire rifle is illegal....
what do you guys think?

I think you're right.
But I think if the wrong warden encountered you with this setup, you may end up in court explaining it. You'll win, but what's it gonna cost?

That is correct. I have friends that are Game Wardens and asked that question. If you are in posession of a rifle or pistol during bow season you will be ticketed. (conceled with CHL is probably going to be ok, but still questionable as you will get grilled to ensure you are not carrying it to hunt) I used to think the same thing, meaning hogs come out and I could shoot them with a bow. Someone told me to ask so I did and well I am glad I started the conversation with "Hypothetically..."
