I would have to say that the 50 cal that I built when I was a kid for a traditional. I would have went with the TC Encore as my in-line choice. I only have 5 ML's so I am not quite addicted as some...LOL...

No fair Sharpsshooter. Like Cayugad, I have to have two selections. One for traditional (Lyman Great Plains) and one for in-lines (TC Omega).

I had to pick Lyman since no Hawken was up there. Close as I can get.

My White Super Safari is my favorite rifle. I have a few that are close seconds. Honestly, I like all my rifles and would have a hard time parting with any of them

I know , I agree but I had to narrow it down . Otherwise I would have to say white and Knight for inline and Lyman GPR for traditional , no wait , Pedersoli for traditional actually make that a custom ESR. . Understand now why only one choice.

This is easy for me. My favorite is the Omega. One has a peep sight which i have always had to use for our muzzle loader season. One has a 1X scope that i hope to use this year during our muzzle loader season. Another carries a 1.5-5 power scope and i use this rifle during the hills rifle season, if i draw a tag. The only 45 caliber Omega was able to smuck a milk jug filled with water, 452 yard out with one shot. This rifle, which carries a 2-7 scope, may get a chance hunting pronghorn this year, if i draw a tag.

If i had to choose but one rifle, it would be the Omega.

If i really really really had to choose one rifle, it would be the X7; thankfully this thread is just a game. However, if this were for real, i would choose the Omega X7.

I don't know how to vote on these one. I have a soft spot for the older knight plungers, I like both my cva based lines just because I have one in 45cal and the other in 50. I like the looks of my cva hawkins. my silver eagle likes to shot conicals but likes beat me up while doing so. did not have luck with the one tc I owned, found it a better home thou.
