I think the Ruger Stainless Hawkeye is one of the best hunting rifles for bad weather that's ever been made. We have four in the family.
I had two and bought two more on sale when they were discontinued. A really good parctical hunting rifle IMHO.

Agreed. Bught an All Weather Hawkeye in .280 Rem to replace a #1 in same. The #1 was really nice and a great shooter but it didn't suit my hunting needs. THe All Weather fits very nicely and is one of three stainless Ruger "elk " rifles (.Hawkeye 280 Rem, MKII.30-06, .MKII 338WM). The .280 Rem is going elk hunting in November,.
