for me...stevens model 200 25-06 my scope costed more than this gun did new...but after shooting my brothers I was so impressed that I put the browning .270 in the safe and have hunted this year with the 25-06.


to me its what you have confidence in.

I dont think the deer you shoot will really care what the name brand of the rifle is .... 270 or 7mm08in any brand is hard to beat for a WT.....a high dollar rifle looks good walking into the woods but the deer aint any deader when shot by a Blaser , Browning orif shot with a Mossburg shotgun ...

pre 64 model 70's in 06 or 270. If you can fine a Model 70 classic super grade that would be my #1 choice.

Its a toolbox, hunting that is, so different tools for different situations. Brushy, tight quarters, lever gun such as Marlin 30-30, .35 or .444. More open shots, Savage American Classic in .300 win mag. Slug gunning only, 870 express combo with rifle barrel. ML, hands-down the Savage 10ML-II, the best by far. Pistol, .460 S&W for deer and .500 S&W for larger game.

This is the new Marlin in 30-30

DannyD, I would really like one of those in .444, but not the first firearm on my priority list right now.

Hey Red,
I finally got to actually see and hold one recently. I started saving for one immediately. It looks even better in person

I agree 100%, but the question asked was not "the best caliber" it was "the best gun". This whole thread is to stir up a little controversy.
