I use a Winchester Model 70 "Short Action Carbine" in .308. It is a "post 64" model, but handles and shoots well. Sweet rig, I just love it, expect to keep it the rest of my life. It's great for the tight quarters you mention, but if you want to whack something at 300 yds, it'll do it.

I have a .308 Browning BAR Stalker (Alloy reciever, blackplastic stock) 2006, little used.
I has been professionally modified into a 16" (16.125") Barreled, 1" shorter stock "brush gun/carbine".

I live and hunt in Maine.. The woods are very thick here. Shots are short.. Short guns are the trick with low power scopes...

This may be more $$$ than you want to spend.. They are about $825 new at a good discount..

It has a Burris1.5x5 Fullfield II (Matte) scope and Leupold QR rings and Limbsaver slip on pad...

I'd ask $625 for it and actual shipping to your FFL only...

Its honestly like new, looks good in all black.
Oh.. There is an extra ($50) .308 magazine included..

If your interested.. I can take some pics for you...

OH! If the stock is too short.. The Browning web site lists a new Stalker replacement stock for only $32!

I use a 30.30 Lever action when I hunt from tree stands or crawl through thickets. The marlin probably dropped 20 deer so far. The 300 win mag goes when iI go 3 miles in. It is pleasure to carry and blasts deer and my hearing. Tried to hunt with a 357 mag pistol I needed to wear.muffs. t i
