My "go to work rifle" is a Remington 700 in .30-06. I have shot 25+ deer with it, countless other critters as it serves as a truck rifle also....

My sister, wife, father, grandfather and several friends have all used it from time to time. It's beat up. Has dings in the stock.

But it shoots dang good. And when it's really time to kill a deer that's typically what I grab. And it typically works.

Lots of other options, and it's nothing fancy.

I don't think you can build that over a single winter. It's gotta be something you've drug around with you for a while.
