Heaven Forbid that that would ever happen but if it did I would probably keep the 308 Browning A-Bolt. I could live with my 280 as well. If I were younger with a lifetime of hunting ahead I would go back where I started with the Rem 700 BDL 30-06. It did thje job on four continents. Although it would be hard to not pick the 7600 30-06.
