A couple but won't do it anymore. Here in this part of Maryland, we can't use a rifle, we have to use a shotgun with a slug. A 12ga slug will do an incredible amount of damage.

Back in day, when I was young and dumb, I used to use my Rem 1100 and would load up the magazine with 4 rounds and 1 in the chamber. My problem with that gun is when I'd start pulling the trigger, I always kept pulling it. One morning, I had a nice 8 point walking towards me but couldn't get a shot, there was too much stuff in between me and him. I had one last chance at him before he disappeared into the thicket. So I shot him. He ran under and past me full tilt. As he did, I started pulling the trigger...duka, duka, duka, duka. Hit him 4 more times.

Needless to say, there wasn't much left meat wise. Basically turned him into swizz cheese. That was the last time I did that. Not a good move.

After that, I bought an Encore. That way I have to think before I pull it a second time.
