I recently sent a short questionnaire to the owners of Black Bear Adventures Quebec in order to get their opinion on some hunting related topics, their recommendations and some tips on big game hunting. It was very interesting and very rewarding to have their point of view on the most beautiful sport in the world.
Best pheasants/ small Hunt Weapons:
410 or 22 caliber
Best moose weapons
7mm, 300, 308, 30-06, it goes with the comfort of each, for me the 7mm is more precise and a recoil that has the pace with an interesting shooting distance.
Best weapons for bears
Same as for moose as it is a big game hunting
What do we need in the wood as equipment when we leave exactly?
Flashlight, a weapon, knife, lighter, water, food. GPS
