150 plus deer with a Model 700, 6mm Remington. Burned the barrel out on it and now it is a cm.
You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it. A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck. Liberals with guns are nothing but hypocrites.

Most deer-- Remington 700 Classic .257 Roberts Most elk --- Sako Finnbear .270 Win. Lots of onesy-twoseys since I came down with the dreaded looney affliction.

For me, a WInchester Model 70 Featherweight in 7x57 has taken more deer than any other rifle.

Sako A 7 in 7-08 shooting 140 gr TSX's. Never recovered but one bullet on any game shot with it, those being elk, mulies, whitetails, antelope, black bear, coyotes and whitetails. The one recovery was on a bull elk (7x6) that was quartering away and fixing to leave, shot him behind the shoulder pretty far back and found the bullet just under the hide forward of the right shoulder.
My middle grandson has already laid claim to that rifle whose moniker is, "Little Lucifer".

Old, Walnut 700ADL in 270 Win. Could fill a dumptruck with the deer I've taken with that rifle.

Justin, don't you mean "Which rifle..."?
Anyhow, for me it is a Winchester Model 70 PF Featherweight in .280 Remington wearing a Burris 2.5-8x Compact. It swings like a fine shotgun and kills deer and elk with ease.
