I have a Remington Mohawk in 6mm that I got from my uncle. Also have a Ruger #1 from him in your favorite caliber 22 Hornet that I am gonna try out soon. :rock:

zrexpilot!

I was so immersed in looking at the gun in your photo, I had totally missed you shot a pig! LOL! My attention was off because I was looking to get a 30-30 in a NEF with a similar stock. Nice looking gun.

Reminton 700 in 270 using Nosler Custom Accubond 140 gr. Also have H&R Handi Rifle in 243 that's accurate and fun to shoot.

I shoot 165 grain Remington Core-lokt out of my Remington 700 .3006. Both deer I have shot with this rifle have hit the ground like a box of rocks, without taking another step.

I am also going to bring my Marlin 336 in .35 Remington, which is a sentimental rifle to me and I'd like to take a deer with it at some point.

I dearly love carrying my ruger 77 in 257 roberts, but I carry sever different calibers during the season

Springfield 30-06! Paired up with a 165 grain FP Fusion bullet.

I'm just getting back into hunting after many years and that's what I'll be using (Savage 170). I'm eyeballing a new 7mm-08 also though. As soon as I spot a deal on one, I'll be all over it but until then the 30-30 w/Leverevolution will suffice.

300
 
300 WSM in a Savage stainless Weather Warrior with 150 gr bullets.

Doe Dumper 11-11-2009 10:05 PM

7mm-08 or 270.

zlr101 11-12-2009 04:17 AM

I like the .308 in the remington 700 has worked great for me so far.
