Remington 7600 is my favorite for looks and use.
Win M70 Extreme weather I think is nice looking but I don't own one.

Yep, there's just something about Mausers. Especially this one: http://www.christies.com/lotfinderimages/d40036/d4003616r.jpg Okie John
If Montana had a standing army, a 270 Win with Federal Blue Box 130's would be the standard issue.

This is one of my all time favorite Rifles. I knew that I had to have one when the 1981 Win catalog came out. I got a 270 Win and let that one get away from me but replaced it in 2011. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1125.photobucket.com/albums/l591/kleingunther/Elk%20%20%20HUNTING/Favorite%20Guns/photo-84.jpg) It works. This one is 6.5X55 that I bought from 'bangeye' here on the 'fire. First DAY to hunt it 11/2012. I'm in timber and it's cloudy. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1125.photobucket.com/albums/l591/kleingunther/photo-68.jpg)

Model 6's are just rare enough and pretty enough that I would take a beater out on bad days. You dont see them very often.
Nice gun.
humdinger - I don't know if you were involved in a thread in the Deer Hunting Forum but there was a lengthy thread entitled Deer Hunting & Pump Rifles. If interested do a search in that thread under that title and key word Mag Marc. There are < 97> pages and a lot of pics. Marc, SKane, Whelen Man, BobinNH and others participated. Unless I'm mistaken the totals and % of cartridges chambered in the M Six are in the latter pages. There are 7600s, 14s and 141 pumps also pictured in that thread. Jerry Humdinger -- correction there are 97 pages in that thread. I just bumped it up in Deer Hunting forum where the no.s and % are listed. Jerry I've watched the thread several times and enjoyed it. I really kick myself for not scooping up a 3006 at a gun show because I wanted to find a 308.. I have yet to see another at a gunshow. I'll mention I avoid gunshows now because I have a gun buying addiction...
Other than that, How was the show Mrs. Lincoln?

I must admit to a growing appreciation for plastic-stocked rifles, especially when the weather's not wonderful: ![[Linked Image]](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd77/jkubesch/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpspvvofayo.jpeg) However, the lines of the 700 Mountain Rifle are a siren song for me: ![[Linked Image]](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd77/jkubesch/photo7.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd77/jkubesch/IMG_5203_zpscb365c28.jpg) ... especially when Karnis gets done with it... ![[Linked Image]](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd77/jkubesch/StockPick.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd77/jkubesch/StockButtPick.jpg) FC

My favorite outdoor rifle (Kevlar stocked 721) is not even close to the one I like the looks of best -- hard choice, maybe my 1885 45-90 or my pre 64 375 H&H AI.
My favorite indoor rifle shoots salt. I use it on flies. It is my a-salt rifle.
I prefer classic.

I have a pair of Sako Finnbears in 264 Win Mag with the 26 inch barrels. Same scopes, mounts, and slings. I like them a lot.
