    Rifled slug gun recommendation for MA?

    Guys thanks for all the help. I really didn’t like the idea of a muzzleloader although I know it’s the smarter & more cost effective choice. However, this guys video inspired me. This looks very doable IMO. I think it’s my unfamiliarity with muzzleloaders that’s put me off them (never even...

    Rifled slug gun recommendation for MA?

    I don’t know much about muzzleloaders. Never even handled one. Do they make any that use cartridges or that you can load like a normal rifle. I saw a YouTube vid with a model that accepted cartridges vs pouring powder. MZs just seem so complicated vs a shotgun, but it’s probably because of...

    As someone suggested, did you ever consider a muzzleloader? I had no idea you could use them during shotgun season. Any reason you went with a shotgun over a muzzleloader?

    Rifled slug gun recommendation for MA?

    That was my other top choice, the Rem 870. But I figured loading it using the pump action would make too much noise when a deer approaches. The Savage 220 uses a bolt for quieter loading no?

    Rifled slug gun recommendation for MA?

    Thanks everyone. Overwhelming response and I sincerely appreciate the help. I had not considered a muzzleloader... I'm a bow guy and am unfamiliar with most firearms. But someone said they have more range and are more accurate than shotguns? I had no idea. Is this correct? I thought...

    Rifled slug gun recommendation for MA?

    MA allows hunters to use rifled slug guns up to 10 gauge during shotgun season. Can someone please point me in the right direction for which models to look at. What are you top 5 rifled slug guns for northeast whitetails? I'd like to scope the shotgun too if that matters. Cabelas sells a...

    Any thoughts on the Sako A7 Roughtech stainless, good value?

    The A7 accepts weaver style rings correct? Any recommendations for the mediums? Have you ever tried the lows? I assume this is where the issue is coming from?

    Is Tikka and Sako the same company, just different brands?

    Does BP take care of sight installation and setting it up like they do with archery at Cabelas?

    Any thoughts on the Sako A7 Roughtech stainless, good value?

    So this is a steal or what? The tikka stainless with synthetic stock is the same price. How would these two compare? Why the excitement for the Sako over a Tikka. For me personally, the safety on the Sako would be 100X better than the tikka, being able to unload and reload with the safety on.

    Any thoughts on the Sako A7 Roughtech stainless, good value?

    I was reading some reviews. Apparently they have ejection issues and some issue with the clips (that Sako will replace under warranty). Anyone have any of these issues?

    Rifle and scope recommendations

    Tikka t3x is a great rifle. But I don’t like the safety mechanism at all. I’m looking at the model 70s right now for the 3 position safeties.
