I hunt in Mississippi and am looking for a primitive and new deer rifles. After doing some research I may be able to kill two birds with one stone.
Thompson Center Pro Hunter (which is allowed in Ms) chambered in .35 Whelen. For those who aren't that familiar with the round, it's a necked up 30-06 to .35 caliber. This round qualifies as Primitive and has very similar ballistics as my current 30-06.
local shop has this gun, ammo, bar and rings out the door for $887
I'm looking to put a Meopta 3-12x50 Artemis 2000 or 2100 series scope. Order the scope online for $475 (regular 700 to 850)
Do you guys see any reason as not to do something like this?
TIA

As long as it is legal. I know it wouldn't be in LA but if you only hunt MS then why not. How hard is it to get the .35 ammo?

way to pricey for a primitive weapon. Get a H&R 45-70 for $300 or the buffalo classic for a little more.

My Dad has that gun in a 7mm WSM and I love it, it's his favorite gun out of close to 30 rifles(obviously not primitive weapon legal).

My opinion is that TC makes quality firearms. I would like to have one of those you referenced.
Also, that's what this chick uses:
