Thousands upon thousands of Pennsylvanians can not be wrong, despite the way their vote for President turned out.

I think you already know where this is going.

According to my Dad, Granddad, and three uncles, as well as the aforementioned Pennsylvania Militia, there is only one choice for deer to elk. That is a Rem 760 in 30-06. Load her up with 165 gr Barnes XXX at 2850 fps. Set a decent 3-9x40 on top.

I will never give up my bolt rifles or my Ruger #1. But the 760 is surprisingly accurate.


Oh hell, look here. This is a more classy (and classic) choice. Plenty adequate to 150 yds.
1941 model Rem 141 in 35 Rem.
