RE: what is the best gun to hunt deer with?
 

Like you said, everybody will have their preference. I've been using the same Rem model 700 in .270 cal for over 30 years. I like the Hornady 140 grain Lt Mag cartridges.

I'm shooting a remington model 788 .308 bolt action, they don't make them anymore but field and stream had it this past winter as one of the 10 best new used guns. I shot a nice buck with it last gun season and it is a beatiful shooter. Such a smooth, clean shot

Remington .270 of course

I have only ever shot my Mossberg 30-06 and i find it works just fine with a 150grn bullet. So i would have to say the 30-06.

I use a 30-06 to deer hunt with. You'll get as many different answers on this thread as you will on a "what's your favortie food" thread.

A buddy of mine uses a .280. Another buddy uses a 7mm or a .270. Dad uses a .308. I use a 30-06 and have actually killed deer with a muzzleloader and also a Mossberg shotgun.

I do like the 30-06 load an awful lot when it comes to deer hunting though...
