RE: What do you consider to be the best gun brand?
I used to shoot a Remington 870 and i liked it....When I was a freshman in high school, my parents asked me if I wanted a class ring and I said heck no, I want something that I am actually gonna use.....My dad was like alright, I will see what I can do... About a year passes, and my dad brings me home a Winchester Super X2!! I asked him what it was for and he said "heres your class ring"!! I love that gun and I dont think that I would trade it for anything. One of my buddies has a benelli Nova and there has been multiple times when we have been out pheasant hunting or clay pigeon shooting and it has jamed up..... He got a benelli super black eagle and when he told me i laughed and said you should have got a Super X2!!!

First and formost would be my Remington's 700's I own. 1, is a 30-06, 2, is a 7mm Mag. and 3, is 22-250 with a heavy barrel, I use for varmint and predator hunting Then I own the 870 Super Mag. Which never failed me. I also hunt a lot with my Winchester 94 30-30. I love that gun for hunting the cedar swamps, or thick woods. I also own a Marlin 25MN in a .22mag. I use for fox hunting at night, or squirrel hunting. And I also own a Thompson Center White Mountian 50cal. smoke pole I use for the muzzle loader season. But all in all I'll stick with Remington's any day.

Well, guys, I think there's a big contingent of remington users. I think they've got the numbers out there. I plug away with a sako finbear in .270 win. Puts out a nice little 1-inch groups with some mail-order ammo, and a little better with winchester silver tips. I guess it works. My handgun of choice is a Ruger blackhawk. I can say it's been a pleasure shooting both of them. Some animals might present a differing point of view.

Remington I'd have to say. But really anything that shoots straight in all conditions, reliable and easy to maintain/clean. I've owned a Rem 870 Express that I picked up for $180 about 12 years ago and man is that thing beat up and all scratched up, but still works like a champ. Plus it's a breeze to clean. I hunt grouse, pheasant, turkey and deer with it. Find another gun for that price that you can take with you to hunt all those animals. When this one kicks the bucket, I'm getting another for sure.
