I go with bolt action, but over the years I have hunted with 2 different lever actions both of them 30-30s. As for bolt actions I have hunted with a 25.06 and a Model 70 Winchester .243 Super Short Mag. which is what I hunt with now, short action and a flat shooting round.

My favorite is my Win 70 in .270 WSM. I just started muzzleloading last year however and have really gotten into it. I like the Optima Elite that I have and am looking forward to see how it performs on deer along with the .243 barrel I have for it.

Without a doubt, my all-time favorite deer gun is the T/C Encore Pro Hunter 209x.50!

Because I'm left handed, I use a pump or semi-auto. 30-06 always puts em down.
