[Greengt88]

Unfortunately restricted to straight walled cartridges where I hunt deer…currently have a Weatherby Vanguard 350 Legend…it's not my favorite but it's what I can legally use…it is def better than the slug guns we were previously restricted to.

Was this…

WIN Model 70 300 WSM

Transitioning to this…

Tikka CTR .308. Brake added for now. Will be suppressed hopefully by hunting season if .gov is nice. Planning to load a 130 grn Barnes TTSX ~3150 fps for deer.

Honorable mention…

M1 Garand with irons and the good ole .30-06.

Don't have to use straight walled cartridges here but the new 400 legend looks pretty cool especially if magnum research would make a BFR revolver for it could have a rifle, pistol combo that used the same ammo.

The rifleman's rifle! Winchester model 70 featherweight 25-06.

The one I have in my hand while deer hunting.

This! The same is true with coyote hunting. I have a few antelope and deer hunting that turned into coyote hunting.

Sako 25-06 that I own and Winchester 1980s vintage 25.06 that my dad owns.

Same here. I have a Sako Av 25-06 that I received from my dad. Great Rifle!
