Without a doubt my Remington 660 .243 has taken the largest share of animals including a couple mule deer, Barbary, numerous white-tails and a whole pile of hogs.

M98 action, Douglass barreled 25-06 and a 100gr Btip. Yup.


If three or more people think you're a dimwit, chances are at least one of them is right.

Huntsman-love those WT's with a lot of mass. Nice deer!

I suspect it'd would be a toss-up between a Ruger 77 in 25/06 I bought in 1980 (120 gr. Core-Lokts) and a Ruger ultra-light 77, tang-safety, in a 270 Win (130 gr. Core-Lokts).

However, my little Marlin xl7 in a 25/06 is catching up fast. It's amazing how the deer totals go up when you get on a good lease around here where no one messes with you or your stuff. But, I still shoot the 120 gr. Core-Lokts in this rifle as well.

1964 to 1977 it was a sporterized M98 in 8x57, then in March 1978 lost it in a house fire.
1978 to present it is a Marlin 336 in 30-30.
Both are great deer calibers.

Early 1970's Ruger 77 -243 cal. After I bought a pre 64 Win in 243 I intended to sell the Ruger. That was three years ago. Ruger out shoots the Winchester and I realized that I'm to attached to get rid of the Ruger. Carried Savage levers the last few years but have only killed one deer with a 250/3000. GW

The first rifle I used that was truly mine, a 99R in .300 Savage. My current M70 SS FW '06 is getting close to passing it.

It's a tie at the moment between my Ruger Ultralight .308 and a Ruger .257 Roberts.

One of my .308s - either my Savage 99F or my Kimber Montana, not sure which, but probably the Savage.

My (formerly my grandpa’s) Marlin 30-30. It had a scope on it in high rise rings until my senior year of high school when I took them off and have been perfectly happy using the iron sights for the last 3 years. Second most is probably the 270 but I go between the 270, 308, 30-06 and 30-30 all season usually.

Hard to say. Gonna have to give the edge to the M70 Classic stainless featherweight in 30/06. I think photo bucket has my only pic of it. Bastards.

Rem 700 hands down for me in 3 different configurations. BDL 243, Classic 35 Whelen , and 700ML 50 cal . I've killed a few with other rifles and shotguns but 90 % were from these 3 the numbers are about equal between the 3.
