No question in my mind... my good old 30-06. Probably one of the most versatile, reliable, repeatable (and accurate) hunting rifles I own. It has taken a beating over the years, traveled thousands of miles in my rifle case and has never let me down. Easy to find, readily available OTC ammo almost anywhere in the world - in virtually every bullet type and weight that your heart desires. I've personally taken everything from ground hogs, coyotes, antelope, whitetail deer, mule deer, and elk with it. It's good in the brush, and on the open plain. It'll drop almost anything in North America and I've shot several animals out to 400 yards and most were DRT. While I do have and like some of my other rifles, if I'm ever in doubt, I always pull that one out!
