Out of our camp this year we had deer taken with the following:
6.5 creed Ruger American
30-06 remington 700
.30-06 remington 7600
.30-06 ruger hawkeye
.30-30 marlin 336
.300 savage model 99
.35 remington marlin 336
.35 remington remington model 14
And I carried a .30-40 Krag a few times but didn't connect.
I'd say the classics are alive and well in our neck of the woods!
The new fangled whizzbang super mags are fun too though.
