Did somebody say hunting? One of my three vices. Hunting, bagpipes and Marlboros.

I love to squirrel hunt. I use either a bolt action .22 or a .36 caliber flintlock, depending on whether or not it's raining. Flintlocks tend to go "PFFT" in the rain, rather than "Bang". I turn them into stew in a slow cooker.

I deer hunt just about every year. Didn't go this year, as I shot several last year and still have meat in the freezer. Ohio, where I live, is shotgun slugs only, no rifles, so I use a 12 guage (12 bore).

I use the same 12 guage for rabbits when I can find them. Coyotes are getting more plintiful and therefore rabbits less so. I've begun shooting coyotes just to improve my rabbit hunting.

Same shotgun for birds. Got a couple pheasants Thanksgiving morning. They tasted pretty good marinated in lemon pepper and white wine.
