I'm not sure how Y'all can pick a favorite rifle but this one gets a lot of use in the thick woods every fall. I have finally gotten it set up like I want with a peep sight and a nice recoil pad. I'm not sensitive to recoil at all, it just keeps it from slipping when I lean it in the corner. A warm 45/70 load in a light rifle does sometimes shift your point of balance which might not be good in a tree stand.
