Looking to get a new Christmas tree?, but don’t have a reliable chainsaw. All that you need to cut down your own Christmas tree is with your favorite rifle. And, pack along 30-50 rounds of Nosler 77 grain ammo. This is what this one guy did on Facebook. Watch as this adventurous dad cuts down the family Yule Tide tree with the help of a little angel and a fully loaded firearm. See the full Nosler 77 grain custom chainsaw video here.

This December 1, 2011 file photo shows the 2011 National Christmas Tree after being lit by US President Barack Obama and the First Family during a ceremony on The Ellipse near the White House in Washington, DC. The Colorado blue spruce passed away "due to complications resulting from transplant shock" just 14 months after it was planted in the Ellipse field outside the White House, the National Park Service said May 4, 2012. Born on a tree farm in New Jersey, it replaced a similar tree knocked down in a wind storm after 33 years.
