Currently, I am relying upon a Browning Bar3 in 7mm-08 after years of using a Thompson enter Encore in 30-06 with 180 gr soft points. I reload 154 gr bullets for the 7mm-08. The 7mm-08 I s very accurate round with low recoil.

Ruger M77 25-06 my dad bought me when I was 11 been shooting it for 24 years now plan to buy my kids each there own rifle when they turn 10

.270

Been using Ruger M77 25-06 for the past 20+ years, this year I used the Remington 700 .270WSM. It’s hard using anything other than the 25-06, just shoots really nice.

Most years it is a Ruger .44 carbine.

Plain Jane 788 remington .243 carbine...100 gr core-lokts...shoots exactly where its pointed..

Hunting Sitka blacktails in AK, I've taken my Ruger Model 77 .300 Win Mag, with a Leupold VariX-III scope.

Next year, when I plan to hunt in Ohio, I'll use a Ruger No. 1 in .405 Win, topped with a Nikon Monarch 3 scope.

Ruger Model 77, Mk II in 30-06 when I am sitting on stand at the big farm. Walking/driving I'll carry great grandpa's Model 64 in 30-30.

Muzzleloader season out comes my .50cal flintlock.

Model 94 ae XTR in .307

Howa model 1500 270 bolt action. As to why, I grew up reading Jack O'Connor and he said their is no big game in North America that can't be hunted with the 270. Eric

I probley will take my weatherby 270 I got a few years ago when gander mountain had there store closing sell. I may take my 45 long colt lever gun if I can figure out a way to plug it so it will only hold 7 shells. We cant hold more then seven here.

My dad has a 788 243, great gun. Do you know what year it was made? Dads was sometime in the 80's

I've had my 280 for 25 years, love it,shot ellk,mule deer,prong horn,whitetails with it and a few coyotes.If I was buying another riflr it would be 300 mag,or a 7mm mag possibly a 338 but the 300 would be my first choice along with my 280.

Typically it would be the custom 300 WSM, but I think I will dust off the Sendero 7MM STW this year.

.50 Cal. or the .375 HH magnum, some deer take a lot of killing. The last ten pointer I killed needed two shots from the 5.56 to knock him down, though the first shot would have killed him.

This Year i wanted to carry my Browning A bolt SS in a .25-06. I did and took a Buck & Doe.
Usually I carry my 7mm. Mag shooting 140gr Rem Ultra bondeds. Or my Rem 600 Mohawk carbine in .243

This season I just felt that Rifle calling my name.

700 BDL 6mm had it over 40 years now. BUT this year tried out my new savage axis 270. great shooting rifle. The ole 6 mm comes out now that I have 12 crop tags to fill. 87 grain spritzer

Ruger M77 in .264 win mag is my got to gun. I bought it new around 1990 I believe.
Winchester model 70 pre 64 in 30-06

I use this 308 and have been using it since 2011. Why? Because I like the way it shoots and it was only five dollars...

I have one in 222 that is the most accurate rifle I have ever seen. It has a 26 inch barrel and I bought it in 1978 from K-mart for 129.00 . It came with a 4 power tasco scope. Just now read the info below and see they made them in 30-30 and 44 mag
