OK If it's got to be one, a Model 70 Winchester. But even they along with 98 Mausers are subject to fail. If you can afford to go someplace like that hunting surely you can afford a back up. No mechanical device is infallible, especially rifle scopes. Sometimes you're where it's inconvenient to resight a rifle. Lots of times somebody will drop a rifle. When I used to hunt up the country a lot in the Texas Hill Country I'd sometimes bring three guns. Not just for my own backup but there was usually 6 or 8 of us and invariably somebody would have a failure of some kind. Get you a good two gun case and put two rifles in it. This question is one I don't even usually contemplate.

What goes up must come down, what goes around comes around, there's no free lunch. Trump's comin' back, get over it!
