The responses you will get will come from everyones personal preferences. I am a Remington guy. So I am telling you Remington. Other than my personal preference I would also tell you to look at Brownings and Tikas. Go to a gunshop and see what you like.I can't think of one manufactur that i would not try.IfIcould only buyone rifleI would spend apretty pennyon it.

PS you have made a good choice in thecartridge to hunt a varity of game. Probably the most versital cartridge made.
