My LH stainless 700 that I put a takeoff .257 Wby stainless fluted factory barrel on. 90 gr Absolute Hammers at 3800 fps. 2" high at 100 yards puts me point blank out to 400 yards. Formerly 100 gr E tip at 3600 fps. It has gotten the job done for me from 50 yards all the way to 425 yards.
 
Probably this one, its a custom Tikka in 25 Creedmoor. One of the firsts probably, made some of my best shots ever with it. KRG Bravo, Xcaliber 22" 1:7.5. Put down three elk and over a half a dozen deer in its first 3 seasons, including the furthest deer I've ever shot, cold bore shot dropped him in his tracks dang near.

Favourite rifle for me is my Kimber 8400 select in 300WM, grab that one the most, but also my Win Model 70 EW's in 264WM & 338WM.

Cheers.
 
700 in 260 remington. Originally bought it as a 1964 adl in 243 with a monte Carlo stock. I shot most of my deer with it including my biggest buck. After I wore out the barrel I had hart put a 26" varmint contour in 260 remington on it.
