Why on earth would you want to kill such beautiful animals?! Hunting is cruel and I cant understand for the life of me why anyone would want to be essentially a murderer. There is no real purpose to killing it and killing for sport is awful.
Will a 22 lr kill a deer? Anyone used one and killed deer or to people that are a very expert hunter.
Not legally, it's way too small and can either just wound the deer or lead to extreme pain and suffering. Especially if it's from a distance, like usual, it'd be very unlikely to get a good shot. My brother and I have gotten our deer with a 30-06 and that's what I've been using this season also. You can get squirrels and rabbits with a 22. However, that is an unethical gun to kill a deer. In most places, it is illegal also. The minimum in most places you can use is a .243, but I'd personally go with a 30-06.
