I was shocked to find this out when I looked back through my records, but the rifle is my 54 caliber TC Renegade. I guess it is because I have too many centerfire rifles, and only two muzzle loaders. I really didn't expect this when I went looking.

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.

My old 700 .300WM.. I have had it since the 70's, for many years it was my main big game cal.. My wife took over my old 06 that was my first big game rifle.. Now I have shot deer with dozens of calibers.. My second place deer slayer was our 7mm Rem. Mag. , then my old 30-06, then a .25-06, 257 Wea. and my .22-250... Fun looking at that old stuff up..

Like some posters, in my case it gets watered down. My favorite deer rifle is the one I’m using at the time. And they get rotated enough that no certain one dominates. I guess that’s another Loony symptom.

As far as RIFLES go, its a toss-up between Ruger 77-Rs and Winchester 70s. It's probably even money with them. As far as cartridges, the .270 Winchester has accounted for over half, and the rest are split between .30/06, 7mm Mauser,.25/06, .243 Winchester, and .30/30 and .44 Mag.
The .270 cartridge has killed more stuff for me than anything else. It's only "gay" if someone else is using it.

early 1980's model REM 700 BDL 270 WIN with a early 1990's Tasco 3-12x52 euro
killed at least 100 deer with that rifle. I hunted west texas from 1982-1996, always killed my 3 deer, then it went to 4 deer per person per year.
still got the rifle, but not the scope, it wears a L now.

I believe I've killed 15 whitetails with my 700 LSS 30-06 AI, all of them with 150 gr BTs. Haven't killed a deer with that rifle in about 10 years, been too busy playing with other toys.

There's a rifle I wouldn't mind having! Never shot one, but IMO the nicest looking rifle Browning came out with. And in my favorite deer cartridge!

I've used one rifle since 1993 for deer. It's a Remington model seven in 308. However during that time period, more than 50% were killed with either my muzzle loader or bow.

Owned a fair number of deer guns, killed most with shotgun.
But for rifles........Thompson Center Hawken Silver Elite.
Popped a couple with Contender Carbine in 35 rem, but said screw break opens and got a Ruger #1.
It's my main rig now, but I've only taken one deer with it so far (nothing big enough to shoot last yr).
