Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting What are you deer hunting with this year?

Everytime I carry my FC 6CM, I feel as though I'm carrying a 22 cal rimfire until that 105 berger does damage like a Thor.
I plan to carry it along side my Rem 280 mountain rifle.

308 savage ultralight 3x15 tract toric scope in texas. Ruger American 243 in NY. Savage 50 cal. Muzzle loader in NY.

7x57 for the opener. If I get a second one it will be with a 9.3x62, and if a third one comes along the 35 Rem!

I have 2 locations I'll be hunting this year. One will only allow a very close shot and I will be shooting a Remington 600 in 35 Remington. The other might offer a shot that is a little longer and I'll probably be shooting a Mexican Mauser custom in 7mm or a Husqvarna in 243 Winchester.

Christensen fft Ridgelines in 6 Cm and 6.5.

I've got a Win 70 Classic Stainless that'll be in the rotation, as well as a BLR Lightweight in .358 Win, a Tikka 595 in 7mm-O8, a Browning BAR II in .25-06, a waffle-top Marlin 336SC in .30-30, and a waffle-top Marlin 336A in .35 Rem., and maybe some others.

Well, assuming that I even get to hunt since I don't have a lease this year, it will be wherever I get invited. It may be my Rem 700 Ti in 7SAUM, my Barrett Fieldcraft in 6.5X55 (my favorite), or my Browning 1885 in 7 Mag. I may take the CA Mesa in 6.5 PRC as a backup.

Depends where I hunt in the woods CVA .45-70 on the pipeline Savage .308

I just did some ammo inventory for my 284 Winchester. I have a good amount of factory ammo then some newer reloads with 120 grain bullets. I’ll check the zero with factory ammo, maybe just use that. I’ll be in the U.P. of MI.

I have 2 rifles in 284. I plan to use the 20” barreled Browning Micro-Medallion. Historically any shot even to 75 yards is unlikely. I gave the gun the once over, then ensured the Leupold lenses were clean.

Killed a Buck the last morning with my 700 ML. On to 30-06 or 300 Vanguard

Just stepped back into the house with a single shot in 7X57 Mauser. All the whitetails today waved to me!

Gonna try to stick with iron sighted rifles this yr if possible depending where I'm hunting.

Rem 7600 30-06 with skinner express peep.

M71 348 with original buckhorn sights. Probably just carry this one bear hunting, already killed a couple deer with it.

M141 in 35 Remington with a Lyman tang peep sight.

M98 sporterized 8x57 with a redfield receiver peep.

Scoped rifles if I end up carrying any this yr will likely be a 03 Springfield 35 Whelen, and a Sauer 101 30-06.

Got enough tags to carry them all but we will see how the deer cooperate. Some yrs it goes pretty easy, other yrs not so much.

I had a 99 rebarreled to 338 I’m going to use as soon as I get a scope on. I’m eager to try it.

Ended up with our son being born a few days before opener. The in laws showed up and I suddenly had a couple hours free and ran out to one of my boxes. It was a hard call as I’ve got a few rifles that still need to be hunted. But when it came right down to what I trust…. I grabbed my 270.

Well, weather has turned to [bleep] already, so onto soul less SS & tupperware !

6.5x55 swede for deer.
Just heading out this morning for 4 days, Moose hunting, M70 338 win mag, love those rifles.
