decisons decisons my gun of choice is dependant on where i am hunting

Rem 700 BDL in 7mm = corn fields after the cut edges and such or out west on elk

Rem 700 bdl in 280 first year for this gun just bought it after looking for one for years
basicly a non mag 7mm so pretty much same as my 7mm just easier on shoulder

rem 742 30/06 pretty much my main hunting rifle

and when i can't get up north i use a my 870 with cantilever scope mount and sabot's michigan has a no rifle rule in southern part of the state muzzleloader or shotgun/bow only
and have numerous barrels and such for the 870 to do my water fowling and upland bird hunting
