The well decked out deer hunter probably has at least three deer rifles......and wants several more.....

RE: Best Deer huntin gun
If there is a perfect deer rifle, I have had it already. I may still have it. If not, I will have it soon.. Seriously I have had, and tried for deer, almost every caiber from 22 Hornet to 416 Rem Mag. Thats the main reason that I got into gun sales for about 15 years. I could order in and try out many guns and then sell them as used guns and recoup quite a bit of my cost. I also took in a lot of guns on trade and tried out most of them. I lost all track of how many deer I have taken over the years but I took more with a 308 and a 6.5x55 than any others by far. They are both perfect deer rifles. Right behind them is the 250 Savage and 30-06 then 280. If I had to give them all up but one though, I don' t think I could part with my 257 Roberts
