What is your favorite rifle in your arsenal?

[Calvin45]

I am jealous of that BRNO. I found at a gunshow two weeks ago but it was too butchered to be saved. A shame. Not an overly expensive gun, but cool nonetheless. Sucks they arent more prominent here in the states.

Very sad to see old classy rifles mutilated beyond recognition. As a Canadian I can't tell how many "sporterized" .303 British Lee Enfields I've seen that are about enough to make a grown man cry haha…or vomit. I've shook my head at so many auction items thinking "what the heck did that beautiful war horse of a rifle ever do to YOU!?!?"

Though I saw a video a while back about "what your favourite rifle caliber says about you" and the .303 British part was so funny…and true.

"If your fave caliber is .303 British you cannot get within half a mile of an antique firearm without feeling the need to take a dremel to it. Your gun maintenance kit is a rusty bastard file, a flathead screwdriver, WD40, and electrical tape. Others would do well to not let you anywhere near their beloved rifles…".

Or something like that

If I have to reach in one of the safes and grab a rifle to do what I need it to do it will be my 300 win mag. It is a Zermatt origin with a proof research barrel, trigger tech trigger, peak 44 stock, Nightforce NSX, and a Silencerco Hybrid suppressor. It is a bit much for hunting squirrels and rabbits but anything else it is good. My other go to rifle is a 257 Weatherby Vanguard Sub-moa she needs to get a new barrel, she is old and worn and needs to get back to her youth

Its easy and difficult to choose just one all at the same time. I would have to say its the Ruger M77 African 9.3x62
Such a nice, handy little rifle

Since my pictures would load due to my post count

Howdy, for me it's my Model 70 - 264 win. mag. Rebarreled with a Douglas # 8 twist, reworked the original trigger to- 2 lbs, topped off with a leupold 4.5 x 16 x 50. But a few years ago I picked up a 6.5-300 bee, and I can't help but keep shooting this gun playing with different bullets and powders. I will probably have to rebarrel this thing next year. It's a lot of fun to shoot. Happy shooting.

This is a tough one! I have so many and seems like there's a new favorite every year…..but if I had to pick one it'd have to be my old Ruger M77 257 Roberts I've had since the mid 70s that I carried in the truck over 30 years when I lived on the ranch! I've killed so many deer, hogs, coyotes, etc with it, I couldn't even begin to count. Originally shot 100 gr Nosler Solid Base, then Barnes X, then Barnes TSX, then Barnes TTSX, and now Hammer 98 gr Shock Hammers @ 3160. It's never let me down! Sadly, with so many rifles, it doesn't get used much anymore!

Hmmmm....my one favorite......easy..it's my 300-340-378-460 Weatherby Mark V Custom!!!!

I was 40 years old when I bought my first center fire rifle. It is a Remington 700 ADL with barrel sights I never use, but they are there. I have see thru rings and a decent Simmons whitetail classic 4x12x50 scope ... makes it hard to use the see thru sights, but doable. It is a basic set up that works well and the rifle has clover leafed three rounds at 100 once, but mostly three rounds at 3/4 " at 100. It's me...I the problem. I use 130 grain and 150 grain nosler blemished bullets mostly. Partitions. Or accubonds. If I had to pick one rifle, I guess that would be it. It has been a great source of functionality, fun, and it loves me.
I am now 64.
Throw some rocks,
Lee

I had a Cooper Custom Classic for around 30 years. It had their straight taper varmint barrel and the model 22 single shot action. Burned several barrels on that rifle. 22-250, it accounted for several thousand prairie dogs, numerous marmots and coyotes. The plague came through eastern Utah several years ago and the prairie dogs haven't come back so I sold it this winter and have a light weight 22 creedmore being built for those above timberline marmots I hunt. Didn't think I would ever sell that one. Things change.

One of my fav rifles is a Tikka in 6.5 CM in a light carbon stock with a long 24" fluted barrel with a 12oz trigger. Beautiful rifle

I have a couple in no particular order!!!

Nosler M-48 in 270 shooting 129 LRX. 22" spotter barrel makes it super light but the recoil is mild.

Custom 7SS. Shoots the 175 EH into one ragged hole. Hard to not pick it up when headed out the door!!
