I will hunt whitetails this year with a JC Higgins Model 50 30-06, or maybe my model 51 also a 30-06.

A New Haven built Win M70 Classic FW 7-08 w/ FX3 6x42mm plex in DDs that I traded into here Sounds like a winner.

I'm undecided, because of where I may hunt. The most likely prospect this year is a CZ550 in 7x57 with a 160 gr. Sierra SBT and IMR4350.

I will be using a 700 ML in a couple of weeks for deer or bear. November I will use 35 Whelen Rem 700 where I can see 200 yds. Or 300 Wby Vanguard where I can see a long way. Deer or Bear.

[quote=jwall]Per YOU - I’ll use my Rem 700 BDL, 8 mini mini Rem Mag. Also my T3X Lite SS 7 mm RM Seriously, I have ammo loaded for the 8 RM. Just gotta check zero. Haven't hunted it in several years. I love my T3X SS Lite 7 RM and BOTH will see action this season. ----------------------------------------------------------- Well I checked zero this afternoon. Both are good to go ! BTW I discovered I DON'T have a pic of the 700, 8mm RM but I plan to cure that this season. About 3 hrs later this guy shows up. 100 yds from house. A neighbor texted me that he was feeding him. I said great....he'll taste good. Jerry

Rain forecast 2nd day of season. Opener is the Remington '63 760 in .35 rem.
Rain day is the M77MKII "all weather" in .308
if bucked out will take the '67 Ruger #1 in .280 for the late antlerless (paid too much for a gloss scope but had to have it match). Nice weather only, of course.
