im trying to get a new deer gun for ny hunting what would you suggest im leaning torge a 270 , 25 06 i dont know yet can i get a little help

Guess it depends on your type of hunting. I hunt mostly woods and some field. I have the Remington 700 BDL DM in .30-06. To me this is the best all around deer gun. My son hunt fields only and he likes the same gun in 7mm Rem Mag. I kid him it is too much gun but he has taken deer at 301 yards with one shot.

My favorite gun is my .300 Winchester Mag.

I'm all for the low recoil .243. Honestly for where I hunt it handles most every situation perfectly, and as long as you take the time to aim for good shot placement, killing power is no real issue.

yea i forgot to mention i hunt alot with a 243 but its not mine i shot one opening morning 500 yards with it an dropped write there , also i like the guns that i dont gotta chase deer to much after i shoot them , i know its shot placement but some guns you chase an chase i like the quick clean kills

hello i like my 30-30 sav, my poppy uses the good all 6.5 55 mauser and he has lots of funn with that too kdown lots of deer and handles pretty good my advice is that whatever gun you feel the comfortablest with if you don't like lots of kick or recoil the the .243 or .270 are good choices now if your one of those advid hunters then you would use a big meat stick

"cough, cough"

Cant go wrong with a .270 or .30-06

500 yard shot with a .243? either you're not great at range estimating or you're nuts....243 lacks serious energy at that range...not somethign you wnat to try at home..Anyways, I'd go wiht a Remington 700 BDL DM, BDL SS DM, or mountain rifle DM, all in .270 or .30-06. perfect for any deer, anywhere. Detachable Magazines are really handy. I've had mine for 4 years, i've killed 15 deer. no disappoint here.
