Although I have a good collection of rifles in many different styles and configurations, this model 70 Win featherweight in 280 Rem has never let me down.

My load of choice is a 140 grain Sierra Game King atop 51 grains of IMR 4350, and ignited with a CCI large rifle primer, all nestled in a Remington case. THis isn't a hot load, but gets the job done.

Getting a little long in the tooth with no heirs that are into guns I've sold off quite a few firearms in the past couple of years.....handguns, shotguns and rifles.

I'm now down to only one deer rifle that I purchased here on the forum from 'DiamondJim' back in Oct. 2009.....it's a very accurate wood and blue Savage Classic 14 chambered in 7mm-08.

I topped it with a fixed power Leupold 6X and have it pet loaded with Sierra 120 gr. Pro Hunters over a good charge of Varget.

Nice rifle. Mine is also a Remington pump but a Model Six in 30-06 that my dad traded a German shorthaired puppy for and then gave me the rifle. I killed my 1st elk at 407 yards and my deer at 466 yards. All with 180 Nosler ballistic tips, 3100 ( discontinued ) moving at 2800fps. This combo is laser accurate. I dread the day I have to come up with a new recipe for powder.

Gunner, when you discover how well they shoot, you will be able to stomach them. grin

No doubt, this one might be more to your liking. Wood/blue, carbine, rechambered to .358Win w/1.5-5 Leupold. My other go-to swamp deer thumper.

You know you need one!

LOL on the want vs need deal, I do know I'd like to shoot a big whitetail deer though, dang, you post some pics of mighty fine bucks.


Don't let him talk you into those dang rifles. They're lighter than you think. Shoulder fantastic, and will probably shoot better than most of the guns you have. Other than that, they're great rifles.

Savage Weather Warrior 116 (Stainless and syn stock) with a Burris fulfield scope in 308. Can't think of a better rifle that is as accurate, and durable while i am crawling around the woods in snow or rain.

Marlin 30-30, compact, durable, gets it done. Especially for the price tag.

Only a couple of 7-08s on the list. I'm a little surprised.

My go to deer rifle is a Remington 700 classic in 8x57 with an FX-3 6x42 with a German #1 reticule. I've used different loads, but currently it is the 170 gr. Hornady RN and W748 at 2720 fps.
