RE: Whats YOUR favorite rifle /caliber/load?????
The guys at the range hate it but:
Weatherby 340 Mag Stainless
with Accubrake
Var-X III 1.75x6E
250 gr Nosler Partitions
I'd love it even more if it were a detachable mag.

Two years ago,after 40 years hunting with big,bang,boltguns,I graduated to a little levergun.
My Main Battery is a Winchester 94 in 30/30 caliber.My preferred load is a 170 grain paper patched bullet and 30.5 grains of IMR#3031 powder.
It works just as good as the big bangers,and is easier to handle.

Ruger Mark II m77 in .30-06 topped with a 4-16x50mm Tasco HC (cheap enough but good enough), shooting 150 or 165grain Winchester Ballistic Silvertips.
