Good cheap all-purpose gun

[dmdracer]

Ind. is possibly/probably going to change the rules "next" year to allow calibers above .243 ( I think).

This opens consideration on which way to go now, get by with what you have and save some $$ and buy a rifle that would pretty much take care of perhaps all of your needs.

Good luck this hunting season.

What about the Rossi Circuit Judge? Switch between .45 and 410 without changing barrels. Under $500.

you can get the .357 or .35rem or .44mag handi-rifle now for yer deer needs then save yer nickels & a little later on pick up a .223 or .22hornet barrel for it. you already have yer Mossberg 500 for yer shotgun needs.

+ 1 what bubba said or just get a good muzzleloader made by T/C

IDH, I also commend you for being A outgoing young man and enjoy hunting and other sports.
I have 3 grandsons that I wish could be influenced by someone like yourself. As for owning all the guns you need, want ect. You have plenty of time on your side being 14 and already owning a shotgun and a rifle your way ahead of most.
To hunt just about anything you already have what you need, I,ll bet by time you are out of High School you will own several more than what you have now but will still want more.
Thats just the way we are . I am more than 4 times your age and have more guns than what I NEED, but still can justify buying more. Enough of that !
Enjoy your youth and all the possibilities.

The Rossi Trifecta (22lr, 243, & 20ga) is a tough to beat all around combo. Some of the old savage m24 combo guns can also be great.

Then again, for 300 bucks you could buy a couple handi-rifles to compliment your mossberg and be pretty well set also. . .
