Smith and Wesson 629 Classic 44 mag. With the right loads you can use this thing for any firearm chore (all right, maybe not shooting birds). Not the strongest revolver, not the most accurate, but an all around great gun!
I have purchased a Savage 10FP in 308 and am very pleased with its shooting ability. If more people who really like to shoot and are on a limited budget (or not) would just go out on a limb and believe what other Savage owners are raving about and buy themselves one they would be sold on them. I don' t think they are that bad looking either. I' ve owned a 10FP in .223 and had the same results which is why I bought this one in .308. Never have I shot a more accurate rifle.
I hunt almost strictly with my old savage ' 06, but if I had to pick just one I' d probably go with the Ruger 77 in 7-mag. Probably a better overall rifle, and flatter shooting.
