Probably carry my 1895G 45/70 with 405 something over 25.0grs of 2400 the most.
I will also carry my 336 .35 Rem, 700 Ti 30/06, 700 .260 Rem, Hawkeye .358 Win and my Stevens 200 .223.
When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.

Always a struggle in choosing between my two favorites: the M70 .270 WIN & the M88 .308 WIN, but I bet the M88 will be with me on opening day. I have to hunt with this M94 .32WS, a gift from a dear friend right before he passed a year and a half ago - I told him I would get a buck for him with it but never got a shot last season. If I manage to blood all three of the guns above then I plan to host an old time, down east deer hunt, the way my Dad and Great Uncles used to hunt - get some deer hounds turned out in the swamp and ring the surrounding fields with stump sitters shooting buck shot - going to use my M12 16 gauge for that hunt.
One of the sanest, surest, and most generous joys of life comes from being happy over the good fortune of others. Archibald Rutledge

Probably start out with the new M70 Fwt. 7-08 pushing 139 Hornady. To defend myself from Ingwe's dogs I'll note that I bought the 7-08 because Winchester/Browning doesn't see fit to chamber in 7x57 these days. After properly breaking in the Fwt, I'll probably break out the old reliables. Ruger MkII 257 Roberts or Tang Safety 250 Savage both shooting the 100 Hornady.

Sako 85 Finnlight in 270 Win with a Zeiss Duralyt in 2-8 x 42. Federal Vital Shok 130 grain BT's should do the trick.
