...All Model 70's I like the way you think. Especially the "all model 70's" part... 
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

As Bob Hagel would say"You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong."Good words of wisdom...............

Remington 700's all the way!!!! What do I carry in my hunting pack? Well: Bolt handles, extractors and triggers. What else would I put in there?  .... Oh wait, that's a different thread.

Gun 1: Benelli M2 12 Gauge
Gun 2: Beretta 682 Sporting with matched 30" .410 and 28 guage barrels
Gun 3: CZ 455 American Combo with .22 LR and .17 HMR barrels
Gun 4: Blaser R8 Professional S with barrels in .223, .270 Win., .300 Weatherby and .375 H&H
That should about do it for long guns. Would need a four more for handguns, though.
