Just whitetail.Just here in Pa. Just an old gussied up 788 in 308 my Dad fixed up. Aside from that. I've shot deer with the 30/06,270,25/06,243,308,270 Weatherby,22/250,6mm Remington,338 Win mag,300 Win mag and 300 Ultra Mag. They all worked just fine,and I loved using them all.

Favorite whitetail rifle: LH NULA .308. 165 accubonds or ballistic tips pushed be a stiff charge of varget. Light,accurate, and handles like a shot gun. Will punch through any deer from any angle. Near or far gets them all.

Remington could sell a lot of these if they made them look that good! nice work
Other than that, How was the show Mrs. Lincoln?

I took my buck this year with a CZ550 in .270, also have a Savage 99 in 300 savage and a Win94 in 30-30. The 99 is a newly purchased virgin, the M94 has many notches on it's belt. Looking forward to hunting with the 99 next year.

260 Rem Finnlight in a McMillian stock with a Swaro Z3 3-9x36. A joy to carry and never had a deer run more that 15 yds.

My flat safety, early Remington 700 adl 30-06 in the factory stock with a fixed 4x(currently a older Bushnell, hopefully soon a Leupold FX-II). When I can afford one, I also want to buy a early '90s bdl in 300Sav.

When I can afford one, I also want to buy a early '90s bdl in 300Sav. Old bushnells can be surprisingly good. For example an old banner made in japan 4x, great little scopes! Also the 2.5x. The zoom ones seem to have a few more quirks.

Whatever's in my hands when a deer walks by?
Czech Mauser 257 AI w/ M8 6x 42mm & premier #4 seems to make it often as of late...

Right now my favorite deer rifle is a Steyr-Mannlicher Model M Professional .30-06 with a Meopta 6x42 scope in Warns QD mounts. It is a 1/4 inch shooter with 165gr loads.

Cooper Excalibur in 7mm-08. Could easily be a 308 Winchester though as a alternate!

Peator, yeah it's a nice scope, made in Japan, I have two 2.5x also, one is on my 22LR and the other is on my wife's 22LR. Both of those are made in Japan also. I just would prefer to have American made scopes on my rifles.
