[QUOTE="Biggs300, post: 584479, member: 31342"] There are almost too many great calibers for deer to mention. I own 3 deer rifles, a Marlin 30-30, Rem. 25-06 and a Browning 300 WM. I have hunting buddies that use 270's, 243's and even a 338 WM with great results. I've taken a couple of deer with my 300 WM and IMHO, it is a just a bit of an overkill unless you are shooting longer distances. My favorite caliber is my trusty old 25-06. Whether shooting 300+ yards or shorter distances, it gets the job done and done well. My next purchase will be a 358 Winchester in a Browning BLR. It will serve double duty as a mid-range (under 300 yards) deer gun and either a backup or primary elk gun. I will be hand loading for the 358. Hopefully, it will be my last gun I will need...until my next GAS attack. [/QUOTE]
