Here is my number 1. Had it built as a light rifle in the early 80's when light rifles weren't as common as they are today. Rem 700 with BDL bottom, custom fit composite stock and Leupold 2-7 Compact scope with Weaver mounts. 7lb 2 oz including sling.

Service rifle. The greatest battle implement ever devised.
disregard the M94, she just gets jealous.

Great thread. I am with you. I bought my 30-06 when I got back to hunting after college and LOVE it. It is the rifle I reach for; one that, when I fire at something, that something is dead. Even though I've spent 10x as much on customs this rifle is one I will never send up the road. I've hunted it in Texas, Michigan, and South Dakota.

Winchester SS Classic Sporter, McMillan Edge.

Technically no longer mine. I gave this 1980's PF Fwt to my son in law when he married my daughter.

Shoots pretty well also! Don't trust the chrono measurement--I've had issues with the chrono. Should be around 2740 fps.
