Well, back before the boating accident claimed all my rifles, some hunts went like this:
Mtn Goat
Primary: Kimber 8400 .300WM, 165 TTSX
Backup: 700 Cabela's Mtn Guide, 7mm-08, 140 TTSX
Hogs
Primary: Mauser 98, 7x57, iron sights, 175 RN
Backup: 722, .300 Sav, 4x32 Conquest, 130 TTSX (accounted for all hogs)
Moose
Primary: 700 CDL, .35 Whelen, 250 SP
Backup: 700 CDL .30-06, 165 Interbond
Hogs (24HCF hunt)
Primary: RAR, .22-250, 75 BTHP
Backup: Sig P227, 230 HS
Dall Sheep
Primary: 700 Mtn Rifle, 7x57, 154 SP
Backup: 700 CDL .30-06, 165 Interbond (didn't make it onto the bush plane) Guide carried a Husqvarna mauser in .30-06
Elk:
Primary: 700 Mtn Rifle, 7x57, 173 SPCE
Backup: 700 CDL .30-06, 165 Interbond
Hogs (24HCF hunt)
Primary: Savage 99, Iron sights, 130 TTSX
Backup: Sig P245, 230 Gold Dots
Bunch o' other hunts were most likely just mixed 'n matched versions of above. Short of the iron-sighted guns, I could probably plug 'em all in interchangeably. If I'm close enough, they all work.
