RE: Whats Your Deer Gun?
I have 2 deer rifles...A 1980 Ruger in .243, topped with a Leupold VX-II 3x9x40 scope...I usually kill 5-6 with this each year and then move to my 2nd deer rifle...A .54 caliber flintlock that I made back in the late 80s...I usually take a couple deer a year with this...

I have too many to pick from, but will carry any of them depending on the conditions and terrain.
6.5 X 55 short carbine, 3X Weaver
243 Win on a Mauser action 3X9 Leupold
30/06 Savage 110, 2.5-7 Weaver variable
8mm/06 opn Mauser action w/ 2.5-8 Weaver variable
Savage 99 in 300 Savage with peep sights only
Lately I've been toting the 6.5 Swede carbine the most.
