Just joined the forum. I'm still using the same browning abolt stainless stalker in .270 win that I've been using since 1998. I kill on average 4 or 5 deer a year with it. It has served me well. Prior to that I was using a Remington 7400 .243 for a few years. I keep tinkering with getting a new rifle but with 3 kids and 1 on way deer stands and blinds make more since to spend money on. Bought my oldest a Ruger American compact in 7mm-08 last year, and he killed 1 buck and 4 does on his first year shooting. I'm sure with 4 kids all future guns for a while will be for the kids.

Not by a long shot. Pardon the pun. It came from the most northern town in NH. Pittsburg, NH.

In centerfires, probably more with a variety of .30-06's than anything else. When it comes to other cartridges/rifles I tend to whack one with it then retire it in favor of another flavor thereafter. As for the gun I killed more deer with than any other single gun, that would be a custom muzzle loader I built 25 years ago- .45 half-stock percussion gun, copy of an Ohio-style Vincent rifle. 70 grains FFFg and a patched round ball is pure death in the thick Eastern deer woods.

I try to get blood on a new gun (or old gun with a new barrel) every year. I do remember 1 year having an abundance of both deer and antelope doe tags.
T/C Encore with 24" Custom Shop 260 barrel. Routinely boring to shoot - everything I point it at falls over dead.
