Hello,
I've never been a hunter but many in my extended family are. I live in Michigan and most of the people I know use shotguns.
However, I have a buddy who would like to start hunting white-tail deer. Prior to this he was anti-gun. He wants to use a handgun for deer hunting. A lot of people wouldn't advise a handgun over a long arm, but it is possible and it is legal in MI.
So I was wondering what would be a good choice for him to buy as his deer hunting handgun? This would be his first, and possibly only gun purchase. I'm hoping that if I accompany and have a positive hunting experience with him, then he would possibly see the light and become fully progun.
I have a Delta Elite 10mm that I could use 200 gr @ 1250 fps Texas Ammo Co. ammo with. What suggestions would you have for him?
