Remington Model 700 ADL with a BDL upgrade trigger and action .300 WIN MAG with 150 gr Remington Corelokt Soft Points. I shoot it at anything that moves. Rabbits, squirrels, praire dogs, hogs deer. Only thing I don't use it for is turkey, and that's cause I prefer to use a shotgun for those, although I have done it in the past with success.

Bloodsaw,

Some states outlaw rifles for hunting. In that case hunters are forced to use shotguns with slugs. Just so you know. That is why some ppl have posted shotguns.

Mine is a Remington 700 .30-06. Shooting 150s. Lately my sister has been using that and I've been carrying one of my lever guns. Nice and light to carry through the woods and I've really enjoyed using them. But if I ever get really mad at those deer, I'll get my 700 back.

700 ADL 25-06 is a favorite of mine but I don't mind the function of my 111 7RM.

T/C Omega Z5 for rolling smoke.

I didn't read the rifle part, just the bullet launching. I guess it can be considered a rifle because it shoots a solid projectile out of a rifled barrel.

My Mossberg 100ATR .270. I just have a cheapo scope on it, but it gets the job done. I use Winchester Super X 150gr.

I have really been wanting to "upgrade" but I do not have the funds at the momment.
