Bullseye is a show off, so he uses pretty much anything to kill people.
Guns make it too easy.

Wake me up at your own risk.Yeah any moron can kill someone with a gun. That’s why the samurai fell. You don’t need much training to use a gun compared to a bow & arrow.
A banana though, now killing with that takes real skill.

"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."I'd say guns require more skill because of how much more powerful they are than bows and arrows.
Not really.
With a gun you just need to learn how to handle it & the recoil.
A bow & arrow requires enough strength to pull the string & launch the arrow, aiming while under the strain of pulling the string, & figuring out the arch of the shot.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie.""Any moron can kill someone with a gun"? Not if they learned to use it at the Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy, like most villains.
Ultimate Secret WarsThat’s only in effect with heroes, they kill everyone else pretty well.
And even on the heroes side, when they get a gun they become easily effective.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."The best defence against being attacked by someone with a banana is to shoot them. Then eat the banana.
X-Men X-Pert, my blog where I talk about X-Men comics.What about point-ed sticks?
My various fanfics.Which means he's taking Jen seriously. Not that guns would do much against her.
Depends on what kinda ammunition he's packing. If he's taking her as seriously as you say (and as I understand it, Bullseye usually avoids heavy hitting heroes like Jen because he's fully aware he's just a normal dude who could easily get pwned by them so it makes sense he would take her seriously) then I can picture him splurging for an adamantium bullet...or a vibranium bullet...or an admatium vibranium bullet.
Or whatever it was Hawkeye used to kill Bruce, but as a bullet.
One Strip! One Strip!Uselessium for all the no good it did
Forever liveblogging the AvengersThink your target coming back to life is a good reason for a refund on the bullets or the assassin?
Wake me up at your own risk.Hawkeye killed Bruce so badly it wrapped around and made him immortal.

What are you talking about?
It turned Hulk into an even worse monster....
This isn't gonna lead to people shitting on Hawkeye is it? Cause I'm kinda sick of that.
One Strip! One Strip!Let’s shit on Bendis for forcing the situation of Hawkeye killing Banner.
Also shit on him for his odd way of writing Hawkeye in general.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."Bendis truly didn’t get Hawkeye
Deliberately. He deliberately did not get the character
Forever liveblogging the AvengersI'm not sure he got half of the characters he wrote really. Or cared too.

Doctor Who — Long Way Around: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13536044/1/Doctor-Who-Long-Way-AroundI haven't read much of classic Avengers but from what I gathered Hawkeye was so against heroes killing that he divorced his wife for killing her rapist.
So making him the guy who wants to murder everything all the time is questionable.
Actually I'm pretty sure she divorced him because he wouldn't side with her on the whole 'killing the rapist' thing despite being her husband. Though it's been so long that I'm bit sketchy on the details.
Either way it still shows Hawkeye as being so against killing that he's willing to risk splitting with his wife over it. Even in post-Bendis Secret Avengers he's very reluctant to take part in what are essentially assassinations and has to basically be shanghaied.

Doctor Who — Long Way Around: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13536044/1/Doctor-Who-Long-Way-AroundIronically his Ultimate-self is as sadistic or insane as Bullseye apparently.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."Clint later admitted to Bobbi that he was wrong and he understood why she killed the Phantom Rider.

Although one can argue she never should have been raped in the first place.
Doctor Who — Long Way Around: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13536044/1/Doctor-Who-Long-Way-AroundAnd then her own book confirmed it!
My various fanfics.True. Still her actually getting revenge on the bastard who raped her is better than how most superhero stories about rape happen.

I'm still not on board with Hulk being immortal but the whole Hawkeye situation was dumb
Bullseye with guns? No, I don't find that strange. I think that it was about time.
