Browning X-Bolt Stainless Stalker in a 300 Win Mag topped with a Nikon Team Primos 3-9 X 40. It's going to CO on an elk hunting with me later this month. I'm using 180 gr. Nosler Partitions.
Start young, hunt hard, and enjoy God's bounty.

Right now, mine would be a custom rifle built on a Savage action. It is light, short and quick. Caliber is a Lazzeroni 7.82 Patriot. It is scoped with Nikon Monarch 3-9x40 with BDC. I believe the stock to be a Bell & Carlson. The barrel is fluted, the rifle lightened and the trigger done. The work looks like a garage project but it shoots well!

Browning X-Bolt Stainless Stalker .280 Ackley Improved topped with a Nikon Monarch 4-14X50. Got the job done on Saturday October 1, 21 minutes into the season. First elk I have killed in a long time, I was very excited, still am to be honest.

I don't really need to shoot an elk this year as I haven't finished eating last year's bull, but if I do, it will be with my custom .300 Weatherby Vanguard shooting a 168 gr TSX... unless it's raining, in which case I'll use my Remington 700 in 7 mm Rem mag shooting a 160 gr Accubond.

Old Savage 111E safe-queen I traded a horseshoeing and a mule trim for. 7mm Rem, loaded slightly above book, just shy of excessive pressures and still driving tacks with 139g SSTs or 140 NBTs. With a Ziess Z-600 3X9-40 ,screwed down with a Game Reaper one piece mount.
Clinging to my God, and my guns!
