Lot of 30-30 levers, mainly Marlins, among the hunters that frequent the woods. 30-06, 270, and 7Mag bolt guns for those that hunt fields. Fair number of Browning BARs around.
Most bolt rifles are of the plastic variety these days, savage and Remington being the most popular. Ruger Americans are becoming popular. Most people willing to spend money on a rifle seem to go with Browning A-bolts and X-bolts. I rarely ever see a Model 70. M77s are seen a bit more often but still fairly rare. $50 or less scopes are the norm. I only know a handful of hunters willing to spend more than $200-300 on a scope.
My hunting partner and I are the only people I know personally that have ever take a deer with a 223.
